[Verse 1]
Locked the door at six
Count the spoons in the sink
Rain on the fire escape
I don't need to think
I light the room with steam
From a chipped white cup
Black as a little lie
That helps me show up
[Pre-Chorus]
Stir it slow
Let it settle down
One more sip
And the whole world fades out
[Chorus]
Coffee’s my therapy
Keeps me on my feet
Coffee’s my therapy
Sweet and bitter heat
Coffee’s my therapy
When the night gets mean
Coffee’s my therapy
Pulls me back to me
[Verse 2]
Juke joint in the back
Velvet on the walls
Dice by the ashtray
Last call, last call
You said my name like smoke
And I just smiled
I was halfway gone
But it held me a while
[Pre-Chorus]
Stir it slow
Let it settle down
One more sip
And the whole world fades out
[Chorus]
Coffee’s my therapy
Keeps me on my feet
Coffee’s my therapy
Sweet and bitter heat
Coffee’s my therapy
When the night gets mean
Coffee’s my therapy
Pulls me back to me
[Bridge]
If the band breaks loose
And my hands start to shake
If my heart goes hungry
I know what to take
One dark cup
One honest ache
I can face that mirror
I can take that weight
[Chorus]
Coffee’s my therapy
Keeps me on my feet
Coffee’s my therapy
Sweet and bitter heat
Coffee’s my therapy
When the night gets mean
Coffee’s my therapy
Pulls me back to me
