Doctor's Orders

We used to live the same life All we did was compromised Of you and I at the lowest lows When you're always high but nobody knows It's the little white lies, we tell ourselves I'm not crazy if I'm not by myself You helped me get by when I couldn't get well I'm not smoking anymore Like we did When you were so mature But I was just a kid Doctor's orders You gotta sober up I won't risk me for us We don't have a sober love We used to breathe the same air Eyes closed and unaware Inhaling smoke, blowing butterflies Laughing till we choke On the little white lies Telling you I'm fine, push it to the highest shelf Just out of reach enough to forget, and protect myself I will not lie, it hurt when you fell I'm not smoking anymore Like we did When you were so mature But I was just a kid Doctor's orders You gotta sober up I won't risk me for us We don't have a sober love Everyone I hold Is looking at me scared Cause you're such a traitor But they don't know the cold They've never dared Face an upstate winter, ice to the bone When the wind's so bitter but you hate being home And you can't chitter chatter so you're always alone But the glitter glass shatters when I pick up the phone It's you on the line But I'm going, and I'm gone for good this time Don't wait for me Anymore I'm not your sanity Won't be a weapon in the war You wage against yourself I hope you get well I hope you get well I'm not smoking anymore Like we did When you were so mature, I'm sure But I was just a kid Doctor's orders You gotta sober up I won't risk me for us We don't have a sober love Sober love Doctor's orders Sober up Doctor's orders Sober love Doctor's orders Am I sober enough For sober love Doctor's orders Doctor's orders Doctor's orders
