the cure Lyrics

by Olivia Rodrigo

All the pretty girls in the foreground of my mind I thought I'd done enough, but they keep moving the line I thought I found the antidote this time I thought I found the antidote this time All the nights I spend fighting bad thoughts in my room Feeling so alone, might as well be on the moon I thought I found the antidote with you I thought I found the antidote with you But my head is full of poison And my heart is full of doubt I got toxins in my bloodstream You tried hard to suck them out And it feels like medication And it's good for me, I'm sure But it don't matter how your love feels anymore It'll never be the cure It'll never be the cure Used to play a game in my head when I'd date a guy Tally up the girls that he fucked till I start to cry I thought I found the antidote this time I thought I found the antidote this time But I'm unraveled I'm unraveled I'm unraveled I'm unraveled I'm unraveled I'm unraveled I'm unraveled I'm unraveled And my head is full of poison And my heart is full of doubt I got toxins in my bloodstream You tried hard to suck them out And it feels like medication And it's good for me, I'm sure But it don't matter how your love feels anymore It'll never be the cure It'll never be the cure Oh, 'cause baby, I'm unraveled I'm unraveled I'm unraveled I'm unraveled I'm unraveled I'm unraveled I'm unraveled I'm unraveled I'm unraveled Why can't you come stitch me up? Why can't it ever be enough? Why can't you come stitch me up? Why can't it ever be enough? It's not enough Oh, because my head is full of poison And my heart is full of doubt I got toxins in my bloodstream You tried so hard to suck out And it feels like medication And it's good for me, I'm sure But it don't matter how your love feels anymore It'll never be the cure It'll never be the cure It'll never be
