Like a drug Lyrics

Since you’re gone, I sat at home
Wonder why no I’ll never be free
But the thought of you
Goin with another guy
No, it could never be me
You took a ring and pawned our love away
What can I say, I am left behind
So I take a drink, another cigarette
I can’t forget that you once were mine

What can I say?
I guess it wasn’t meant to be
Now you’re gone,
It’s just, your love is like a drug

It’s been so long
Your folks have bet you gone
I know that you’re alive inside
So I hope and pray you won’t throw this love away
I just wish that you still were mine

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

First post!

I rekon its about a guy whos wife/woman left him. She pawned the ring/item that represents their bond and took off. Now hes left drinking and smoking his cigarettes.

Hes accepting that the relationship is over, but he cant deal with whats going on. Even tho he knows its over, he still thinks that he has a special place in her heart and that some day when all the dust has settled maybe they can get back together, and untill then he will just keep hoping

I think this song has to be about a guy making a comparison of a girl leaving him and him quitting a drug. They are both gone, both cost him everything, and now that they are gone, he just drinks and smokes cigarettes. They both were bad for him, and he knows it wasnt meant to be, but he still reminisces about them.
