Medicated

One more time now

every breath is gone now

you can feel it in your chest

and in your eyes are heavy

from the lack of sleep last night

one more song now

one more memory of you

i can feel it in my finger tips I

hate it, but i need it I just cannot believe it

something I expected not to hear

and these walls keep caving in

lets take this medicine

tonight

one more verse now

this one starts out sad like

every other verse tonight

i wrote this song about you

cause i cannot live without you

please dear lord have mercy on my soul

i've been doing it all along

i've been lacking self control

i've been sitting at home begging and pleading and wishing for you voice

and i've been taking this medicine

trying to shield my self from this

trying to wrap this all up and bury it cry deeply in the yard

oh man the yard is so damn far and to reach it is very hard

it gives me the strength to go on without you a hands distance from my side

i lack hope now in this life

and i can't sleep at all at night

without my medicine without my medicine

so much for this awkward silence

speaking all I can

but the words all come out slurred

and my life's become a blur

let me take this chance to say things aren't alright at home

because without you i'm alone

with one hand on the phone

and on that note suddenly my hand begins to shake

it's your name across a screen

and your picture i believe

so i open it up and hear the faintest voice say "i am yours"

but i've been taking this medicine

and it's sinking deeper in

and now im the one being taken away carried through the roof

and from the sky i say to you "baby thanks for coming through"

just know that this is not your fault i've done this on my own

and when i see you again, no matter where how or when

you can be my medicine

you can be my medicine
