Elixir

You don't want it, but you need it

Here's your portion, mask your seeded angst

Waiting for something new, anxious state, fragile smile.

Suddenly shocked by your own reflection.

Pill provides all you need,

Ill informed, fall in line.

Innocence fading, reformed by pressure

Wasting, wasting away in a prison, lost inside your mind.

A potion, when you drink your emotion wanes, the pain subsides

Waiting for your rescue, drowning in apathy.

Grasping for comfort, restrained by my pride.

Arrogance kills our kind, bitterness, missing time.

Swallowing poison, do you feel better?

Wasting, wasting away in a prison, lost inside your mind.

A potion, when you drink your emotion wanes, the pain subsides

Wasting, wasting away in a prison, lost inside your mind.

A potion, when you drink your emotion wanes, the pain subsides

I will find my way out of this, of this

Coming clean, you never could see.

That medicine dilutes the soul, but the remedy resides in my control.

I'm alive, I'm alive

You notice something's wrong, then everything is gone

Wasting, wasting away in a prison, lost inside your mind.

A potion, when you drink your emotion wanes, the pain subsides
