Ibuprofen

Ibuprofen
Dirt on my breath
Blood in my eyes
Thorns in my back
I wanted to be evergreen
So sorry that I gave what you got
(Foolish and tired I gave what you got)
Now you reap what I've sown
All my leaves like poison to you
I'm yanking the roots

Stop the lies you're telling yourself
I won't get any better for you
I'll love you when I bloom
Stop the lies you're telling yourself
I won't get any better for you
I'll love you when I bloom
Please, doctor don't, I know I'm alive
Winter's so cold
Don't know if I'll be back in spring
So sorry that I gave what you got
(Selfish and stupid I broke every promise)
Now you reap what I've sown
All those trees have plenty of fruit
I got nothing for you
Stop the lies you're telling yourself
I won't get any better for you
I'll love you when I bloom
Stop the lies you're telling yourself
I won't get any better for you
I'll love you when I bloom
