lyrics

The four of us over five years
Whittled down to two
And the years they were relentless
As they wore me through and through
And now my inspiration's left thin
While these headaches are getting thicker
And I've been taking my prescription
But I swear I keep getting sicker

So doctor doctor
What do you say when
The codeine and butalbital
Don't take the pain away
Sure they've been helping with the headaches
And that's helping me get to sleep
But there's no cure out there for heartache
And everybody leaves

The four of us over five years
Whittled down to two
And I checked my math and it just doesn't add up
(No it doesn't add up)
No it doesn't add up without you
And I can't tell if I'm angry or just depressed
Cause I've been worse for less
Yeah I've been worse for less

So doctor doctor
What do you say when
The codeine and barbiturates
Don't take the pain away
Sure they've been helping with the headaches
And that's helping me get to sleep
But there's no cure out there for heartache
And everybody leaves

So Johnny we're sorry cause

We had something golden but we let it rust
We had something golden but we let it rust
We had something golden but we let it rust

We had something golden but we let it rust
