Medicine Lyrics

Doctor, can you help me get me back on my feet

I got demons in my dreams and I need them all to leave

I need medicine

I need medicine

Gimme medicine

Pull me back to life again

Doctor, can you help me get me back on my feet

I got demons in my dreams and I need them all to leave

I need medicine

I need medicine

Gimme medicine

Pull me back to life again

Can you even hear me with my face buried?

I'm a sherry in my system away from the cemetery

I need your help because the mess I'm in is getting scary

So gimme pills or whatever means are necessary

I bet this therapy chair has seen rock bottom and it's getting sick of hearing me complain about my problems

But you know that I ain't got a friend to turn to

Cos asses come and go, but I'll never desert you

I've always got a story to tell, sure as hell

When I'm talkin' 'bout the beer and weed I put in myself

Or how I had a nightmare for the ninth night running

Cos the grips of my demons can be tightening and frightening

Tell me what to do, I'm counting on the truth

So I can salvage what's left of my valuable youth

I can't be left on my own, so just sit and relax

And allow me to explain all the flaws of my past

Doctor, can you help me get me back on my feet

I got demons in my dreams and I need them all to leave

I need medicine

I need medicine

Gimme medicine

Pull me back to life again

Doctor, can you help me get me back on my feet

I got demons in my dreams and I need them all to leave

I need medicine

I need medicine

Gimme medicine

Pull me back to life again

I used to write about the good life in all of my songs

I used to have a fucking life 'til it went horribly wrong

You know, I used to play shows, never let the days go

Then the lane closed, I've never been further from the main road

I quit weed for the fifth time this week

Only get to sleep after a skinful of whiskey

I know that I'm an addict and I'm paddling up shit's creek

The only feat I seek for lack of sleep is six feet deep

Doctor, can you help me get me back on my feet? (Back on my feet)

There's a murmur in my heartbeat

And every single time I try my best to feel alive

I'll be risking all our lives every time I try to drink wine

Caught up on the jagged edges

Now you can get some sort of measure as to where my head is

I need your presence

I can't be left alone, so just sit and relax

And allow me to describe all my problems on a track

Doctor, can you help me get me back on my feet

I've got demons in my dreams and I need them all to leave

I need medicine

I need medicine

Gimme medicine

Pull me back to life again

Doctor, can you help me get me back on my feet

I've got demons in my dreams and I need them all to leave

I need medicine

I need medicine

Gimme medicine

Pull me back to life again

I'm sick of being treated like a spectre by society

I'm losing my momentum and I'm losing all the fight in me

I'm not the man I wanna be, I hate when people talk to me

It triggers my anxiety, I give up on sobriety

Doctor, can you help me get me back on my feet

I've got demons in my dreams and I need them all to leave

I need medicine

I need medicine

Gimme medicine

Pull me back to life again

Doctor, can you help me get me back on my feet

I've got demons in my dreams and I need them all to leave

I need medicine

I need medicine

Gimme medicine

Pull me back to life again
