Silverstein
Medication
[Verse 1]
We'll keep calm and carry on
With good intentions
They'll prescribe the rights and wrongs
Until we're perfect
So maybe one day we'll be safe
In control and full of grace
Never making a mistake
So flawless

[Verse 2]
Cut us deeper to the core
We won't feel a thing
Imperfections we ignore
Embracing difference
I wish this wasn't all so hard
To be yourself and not on guard
To stop the racing in your heart
We'll fight it

[Chorus]
Put me under
Now I'm powerless
I'll take it all [x2]
I'll take it
I can't breathe without you
You won't trust me
I won't trust you too
You bring me back [x2]
You bring me
Medicate me
[Verse 3]
Hide me deeper in my shell
Until I'm all alone
I'm hearing voices in this cell
Hallucinating
I could have sworn I heard it too
A sad and beautiful adieu
It's telling me what I should do
I follow

[Chorus]
Put me under
Now I'm powerless
I'll take it all [x2]
I'll take it
I can't breathe without you
You won't trust me
I won't trust you too
You bring me back [x2]
You bring me
Medicate me now

[Bridge]
As I'm turning into this reflection
You control me
My body and my mind
My emotions and my pride
The simplest things became the hardest part now
The easiest parts have taken all my dreams
I'm afraid
I'll never be okay
I'm afraid
I'm scared I can't be happy
I'm afraid
This silence of fear is not a way to be sincere (I'm afraid)
And it's a way to cope
A way to deal (I'm scared I can't be happy)
But not for me when I can't feel (I'm afraid)
The subtleties that make me want to (I'll never be okay)
Be alive and not a statue (I'm afraid)
Breathe the air
Be here to talk to (I'm scared I can't be happy)
I'm afraid (I'll never be the same)
