lyrics

Well I just want some truth
Yes I just want the truth
Stay close to the ground
Because everything above the billboards
And everything above the highrise
Is nothingness

The only time that I felt dead
The only time I really lost my head
Was when I took your medicine
No, I don’t need it
No, I don’t need it
To sound free
No

You take your medicine
You say you feel like a man
Because you can’t deal
Oh, forget the world
You’re just running from the hurt
If you face it, you can kill it
If you face it, you can kill it

Kill off the medicine man, dancing around your head
Nothing is sacred
