Psych Song

Just came back from my first appointment

With a young, smiling psychiatrist

She told me to just start at the beginning But I already know how this will end

I’ve spent so long being told what I’ve got It’s not like it’s my first rodeo

These twisted voices echo in my head

I really just wanna be alone

They tell me, “if you leave us

You’ll leave the only home you’ve ever known”

I shake her hand and pick up my prescription Maybe there’ll be answers for me now

Or better yet, a moment of silence

But I’m not so sure that that’s allowed

I’ve spent too long being told what I’ve got It’s not like it’s my first rodeo

These twisted voices echo in my head Why won’t they leave me alone?

They tell me, “if we leave, you’ll be more alone than you have ever known”

Maybe no one’s got it all together

Maybe I don’t have that much to lose

My whole life I’ve been afraid of something But I didn’t know you were scared too

See I’ve spent too long feeling sorry for something That I have never been able to control

These twisted voices echo in my head

They think they can make themselves at home

They tell me, “if we leave you

We’ll leave the only home we’ve ever known”

See, I’ve spent too long wondering what went so wrong I know a little pill might not solve it all

But these twisted voices that echo through my head They’ve got to grab their things and go

‘Cause they forgot I have a home, and a wife who loves me so, and a job, and a life I want to live

And it could start with seeing this psychiatrist
