Lyrics

Lexapro got me floating, but I crash land in my bed
Wellbutrin lit a fire, but it burned out in my head
Cymbalta made me dizzy, Concerta made me speed
Xanax kissed me softly, then it left me on my knees
Doctor's orders, little pills
Trading silence for the thrills
Say it's working, say it's fate
Say it's me who's wide awake
Side effects may include
Euphoria, hysteria
A dopamine utopia
Sleepless nights, forgotten days
Tangled neural pathways
A Foggy state, a creeping fear
Tell me how I'm still right here
Am I fixed, am I new
Or just a body pushing through
Zoloft gave me color, then it washed me out in gray
Ambien held me softly but it locked me in a haze
Mix 'em up, shake it down
Tell me now what have we found
Am I better? Am I worse?
Or just rewired, unrehearsed
Doctor's orders, little pills
Promises and dollar bills
Say it's science, say it's fate
Say it's me who can't escape
Side effects may include
Euphoria, hysteria
A dopamine utopia
Sleepless nights, forgotten days
Tangled neural pathways
A Foggy state, a creeping fear
Tell me how I'm still right here
Am I fixed, am I new
Or just a body pushing through
Highs so high my dreams ignite
Lows so low I could let myself die
Lightning thoughts, no appetite
Heart too fast in the dead of night
Nerves on fire, hands gone cold
Lost my mind but found my soul
With each new pill I choke down
One pain eased, four new are found
Am I healing, is it worth the dose
Or am I just a chemical ghost
Side effects may include
Euphoria, hysteria, dopamine utopia
Sleepless nights, forgotten days
Tangled neural pathways
A Foggy state, a creeping fear
Tell me how I'm still right here
Am I fixed, am I new, or just a body pushing through
Am I real, am I new
Or just a body pushing through
Side effects may include
