Lyrics Jesse Rutherford – Junkie

Text:

She’s only 21, lives with dad and mom
They barely get along, at all anymore
She’s sick of feeling lonely so she fell in love
She thought she found the one

But he’s got heroin
He’s a junkie, that’s her plug
She gets what she wants
She’ll never have enough
She wants somebody more fucked up

If you try to talk to her
She’ll find a way to turn it back around at you, yea
If you try to tell her stop
She’ll walk away and lock herself in side her room, yea

She only did it once, all by accident
At least that’s what she said, believe it if you want
Way too many secrets, don’t know who to trust
She’s still got a crush, and he’s still doing drugs, yea
He’s a junkie
That’s her plug, yea
She’s beautiful and young, he’s using her up
It’s hard for me to watch but I can’t hold my tongue
He’s got a needle so he doesn’t need her
Paying the bills while he’s taking his pills
She doesn’t need a hero, she needs something real
But she only feels when she’s killing herself

If you try to talk to her
She’ll find a way to turn it back around at you, yea
If you try to tell her stop
She’ll walk away and lock herself inside her room, yea

Cause he’s just a cheater, he’s gonna leave her

Empty inside when he finds a new high
She’s gonna take it, and try to erase it
Say that she’s fine but she’s living a lie
