The Cold Turkey

Silence screaming through my veins

Everyday a battle against the chains

Now I’m just trapped in these psychedelic pains

Gave up the habit for a life without chains

Telling myself that this too shall pass

But every new hour adds cracks to the glass

Broken dreams scattered like glass

Will this torment ever pass

Got a mind that's hungry for the calm and clear

But without the meds it's all just pain and fear

I miss the days when I could fake a smile.

I had to walk a thousand miles.

Please Please stop

Please Please stop stop

Cold sweat in the dead of night

Blank stares in the morning light

Forgot how to dream last night

These pills steal all the light

Heart races but it stands still

Empty void I cannot fill

these broken pills left my spirit still

Can't unwind my mind from the endless thrill

Got a mind that's hungry for the calm and clear

But without the meds it's all just pain and fear

I miss the days when I could fake a smile.

I had to walk a thousand miles.

Please Please stop

Please Please stop stop

Found myself on shaky ground

Broken pieces all around

Pill bottles scattered on the floor

I don't need them anymore

Silence screaming through my veins

Everyday a battle against the chains

Now I’m just trapped in these psychedelic pains

Gave up the habit for a life without chains

Please Please stop

Please Please stop stop

Please Please stop

Please Please stop stop
