Self-Medication

Not sure what's wrong with my mind

But I always seem to find

Some excuse to bring myself down

I should know better by now

It's strange, but yet somehow

So far I've managed not to drown

Though it brings me to my knees

Some call it a disease

But I can't seem to get it

So I might as well just pour me another glass

Of sweet self-medication

Cause I can't seem to get my head out of my ass

Without an offering of libation

To hit rock-bottom, and lose it all

Down is the only way to fall

Past, present & future erased

I don't even like the taste

Just the way it helps me to forget

Some would say I'm immature

Just hiding that I'm insecure

Convince myself there'll be no regrets

But it brings me to my knees

Some call it a disease

But I can't seem to get it

So I might as well just pour me another glass

Of sweet self-medication

Cause I can't seem to get my head out of my ass

Without an offering of libation

To hit rock-bottom, and lose it all

Down is the only way to fall

Let's not confuse my disease with my condition

My disease is a side effect of my condition

But my condition was not my decision

You know it's easy to point fingers

When your own life just lingers

In the cesspool of the social ladder

So before you bring on the dancing girls

And put the champagne on ice

You'd better think twice

Before you drain your bladder... All over me

But it brings me to my knees

Some call it a disease

But I can't seem to get it

So I might as well just pour me another glass

Of sweet self-medication

Cause I can't seem to get my head out of my ass

Without an offering of libation
