Medicine

What would you do without your medicine,

falling on the floor again,

looking for the fix you found heaven in

What would you do without your medicine,

run like a fiend, never

weaned from the breast, so you fell again

[Verse]

It's the big dark behind you, you can run,

but it always finds you

Reminds you of something that happened so bad in your past

You never want to look back, manifest in bad dreams

Itch starts to scream, medicine numb the gnashing teeth

[Chorus]

I must confess these pains in my chest disappear when I'm feeding the need

So forget about your questions,

cause you know where I've been

There's a struggle in the mud and for now I'm sinking

Sitting in the back room, thinking what might have been

I'm alive, cause I'm taking all my medicine

I'm on top of the world and nothing brings me down

[Verse 2]

What's that junk you been shooting in your veins

Young kids do X headed straight for little brains

Pop a bean for me, call it a shame,

everyone escape, try to get away

Shot from the head, you're the walking dead,

corpses chasing artificial happiness

Death to the freaks and the fiends that deserved it

I had a get out of hell free card, but I burned it

[Repeat Chorus]

Slide down, back to the hole where you feel comfortable

What would you do without your medicine
