Cuco began working on this song in 2017. He completed it in 2019 in a hotel room using apple earbuds, while recovering from a car accident that injured him and his bandmates while on tour. The song title is a reference to the Hydrocodone that he was prescribed after the accident/surgery.
[Chorus]
I'm sitting in my room
I'm all alone now
Missing you, every single day
I wish you would say
Baby, I love you
'Til I die
But my hopes are gone
[Verse 1]
The tainted paint that's on the wall
Crumbles and corrodes rumbling softly as it hits the floor
It's time to say goodbye
You said this would never end
Guess you played pretend but it's alright
I know I wasn't good enough
I showed you where it hurts
And for what's it worth, you made it worse
There's always someone better
I hope you'll find that guy to make you happy and meanwhile
[Chorus]
I'm sitting in my room
I'm all alone now
Missing you, every single day
I wish you would say
Baby, I love you
'Til I die
But my hopes are gone
