Purple Tongue

[Verse 1]
Purple tongue
How many bottles did I get you through
They say a glass or two a night
Will do your heart alright
Well how many does it take
To help out with heartache

[Verse 2]
I've done research
To find the average daily dose that works
But despite my best intents
I haven't found it yet
No I don't think there exists
A liquid heartbreak fix

[Chorus]
Sometimes the medicine prescribed
Is only for the comfort that it can provide
It may not heal you but you'll get alright
And the side effects include
A purple tongue or two

[Verse 3]
Like Sisyphus
I keep pushing rocks up to my lips
Saying one more
And then I'll find a cure
However morning comes
And all I've got is a purple tongue

[Chorus]
Sometimes the medicine prescribed
Is only for the comfort that it can proivde
It may not heal you but you'll feel alright
And the side effects include
A purple tongue or two

And the side effects include
A purple tongue or two
