I'll be a life size
cutout of all your faults
open up your wounds
I will be the salt
no intermission
no time to rest
this is the real thing
this is not a test
chorus
you're the elusive drug
that keeps me from myself
when I reach for you
you're healing someone else
an addiction comes so sudden
oh, it comes so sweet
the elusive drug has me beat
your the epitome of
what you hate about me
you inspire me
to be more like you
and it pleases me
to see you so frustrated
growing intimidated, agitated
cause I'm just like you
chorus
and you pick on my imperfections
and you put 'em out on show
you're well worn crown of compliments
I will never know
