I Went Into Cardiac Arrest For You

A smirk and a smile is all it takes

A wink and my soul will float away

A small drop of love is well over my limit

But I think I just might overdose

What my body can't handle, my mind only craves

One lethal kiss would drive me insane

Your eyes are on mine as I fight this addiction

Call 911 I think I overdosed

The room is spinning and the world is caving in

But this high feels too good to stop or quit

Your love is a drug that I won't give up

But I just might have to. I overdosed

My pockets are empty— I spent my money on you

I loved you too hard and now we're through

I'm going through withdrawals and recovery will hurt

But I almost died because of that overdose

A couple months and some change is all it took

I try to hide it but I'm an open book

Cardiac arrest made me make up my mind

If I don't go back to you, I can't overdose
