Matthew Pearce - Antidote Lyrics

You don't have to say nothing
I know when I'm not wanted
I know when I'm not needed

You don't have to apologize
If I'm the one that you despise
If I'm the route of all the problems you've ever known

But I can't change the past so won't you take me as I am
And I know that I'm not perfect
But I know I'll make it worth it

Cause you're my antidote to everything
When I'm hurt and I need healing
On my knees and barely breathing
You're my antidote to everything
When I'm sick and when I'm dying
It's your bed I want to lie in
You're my antidote

You don't have to cry darling
Cause your voice it keeps me grounded
Your kiss keeps my heart pounding

And we can fantasise
About our future
When we up and leave this town
When our kids are running round

But I can't change the past so won't you take me as I am
And I know that I'm not perfect
But I know I'll make it worth it

Cause you're my antidote to everything
When I'm hurt and I need healing
On my knees and barely breathing
You're my antidote to everything
When I'm sick and when I'm dying
It's your bed I want to lie in
You're my antidote

And it's a life we'll make
No matter what it takes
When you're old and grey
Then you fade away
I'll stand up and I'll say
She was my antidote to everything
When I got hurt, she was my healing

Now she's gone I'm barely breathing
She was my antidote to everything
Now I'm sick and I am dying
Put me in her grave to lie in
She's, my antidote
