My Elusive Drug Lyrics

I’m Not The Same As I Used To Be
All The Things You’ve Heard
Seem Hard To Believe
Haven’t Always Been Good,
Never Really Been Bad
Most Times I’ve Been Happy,
Yea Sometimes I’ve Been Sad

Sure I’ve Made Mistakes,
Haven’t We All
I’ve Been Loose As A Cannon
And Dumb As A Wall
Haven’t Always Been Sober
In Counting My Ducks
And If I Look Back Now
I’ve Had My Share Of Luck

But The Change Didn’t Come Over Night
I’ve Been Searching For You All My Life
All The Habits That I Couldn’t Handle
I’ve Swept Them Under The Rug
In Exchange For The Sweetest Addiction
You, My Elusive Drug

I’m Going To Stay Now,
I Really Like It Here
I May Paint Your Picture,
And I Might Grow A Beard
There Were Times I Was Crazy
Couldn’t Handle My Life
Don’t Think You’d Have Liked
Me Not At Any Old Price

But The Change Didn’t Come Over Night
I’ve Been Searching For You All My Life
All The Habits That I Couldn’t Handle
I’ve Swept Them Under The Rug
In Exchange For The Sweetest Addiction
You, My Elusive Drug

And I’ve Taken The Pills
I Got Burnt Out And Chilled By The Cold
But I’ve No Regrets And That Being Said
You Know Cheap Thrills Can Get Pretty Old

Yeah, Yeah, Oh Yeah

But The Change Didn’t Come Over Night
I’ve Been Searching For You All My Life
All The Habits That I Couldn’t Handle
I’ve Swept Them Under The Rug
In Exchange For The Sweetest Addiction
You, My Elusive Drug

In Exchange For The Sweetest Addiction
You, My Elusive Drug
