adelaide lyrics

Heaven, I need a drug
Her eyes are all but fixed upon her coffee cup
Looking down, she tells you things are looking up
Take another slug

Heaven, I had a dream
Now my life's a nightmare of efficiency
She rattles off the things, she never got for free
Gearing up to scream

I remember when
I had you, you had so much promise then
Promised me that you would never leave again
To be broken you were made Adelaide

Heaven, I need a rest
I recognized the voices talking in my head
I couldn't make out everything the voices said
Loving you is a test

I remember when
I had you, you had so much promise then
Promised me that you would never leave again
To be broken you were made Adelaide

Heaven, I need a drink
I'm here because they're paying me to do my thing
They never specify what it is I should bring
I'm right up on the brink

I remember when
I had you and you had so much promise then
Promised me that you would never leave again
To be broken you were made Adelaide

I remember when
I had you and you had so much promise then
Promised me that you would never leave again
To be broken you were made Adelaide

To be broken you were made Adelaide
To be broken
