The Afters - PAINKILLERS Lyrics

It's plum season
And I've drank all of the wine
I cried on the carpet with the cat last Saturday
But I think I'm glad to be alive
Got pills in the cabinet from when I got my teeth knocked out
Do painkillers expire
Or do they keep their shape in an older mouth
Vertigo will you come home with me
I never had the chance to taste good whiskey
I love your eyes when they cry, you're so pretty
But I don't think I can talk right now
All I've heard for seven days
Is the sound of sirens and the lack of rain
I was looking for something I couldn't explain
But you smoked your lucky and the cops never came
I move out of the city
Try to find my peace somehow
But I fear that the knives in the kitchen
Will call my name every then and now
I don't usually do this
Chronic overthinker always covered in bruises
Sitting on the roof got me looking stupid
I forget what we were talking about
Vertigo will you come home with me
I never had the chance to taste good whiskey
I love your eyes when they cry, you're so pretty
But I don't think I can talk right now
All I've heard for seven days
Is the sound of sirens and the lack of rain
I was looking for something I couldn't explain
But you smoked your lucky and the cops never came
Vertigo will you come home with me
I never had the chance to taste good whiskey
I love your eyes when they cry, you're so pretty
But I don't think I can talk right now
All I've heard for seven days
Is the sound of sirens and the lack of rain
I was looking for something I couldn't explain
But you smoked your lucky and the cops never came
