Self Medicate

You’ll learn to ignore
The bitter taste
If I help you off the floor
To suffocate the truth
Just visit your local store

Who has time for delay?
Just take your medicine
And drift away
One chat with me
Then you'll never stray

Everyone else has found their niches
But your past is sewn shut
And it still itches
Now with every thought
You tear out the stitches

There’s one thing that can help the most
If you find yourself
Holding reality too close
You know life can get real heavy
So just self medicate,
And take another dose
