Took the Best of Me
It's been a year since you broke my heart
I'm no longer the woman you once knew
Since the day you left me
I haven't been the same
Turning towards drugs
To relieve this pain
No matter what I do
This heartache won't go away
When we were together
Everything seemed so right
I truly believed you were the one
But you were the one
To break my heart beyond repair
When I was with you
My days were filled with love
Now it's filled with emptiness
I take a hit from this crystal pipe
Perhaps tomorrow I will do a few lines
Everyday smoke a bowl to mellow out
Snort a few pills every now and then
Once you were my rock, my anchor
That kept me grounded
Now I'm free to float wherever
If you were to pass me on the street
You would only see a shell
Of the woman I once was
For you took the best of me
The day you said good-bye
