Woke up realized I still need sleep
So I went back to bed
Found no rest for these tired eyes
Or my weary head
So I called you instead
You took one look at my condition
Gave me a prescription
Said, "here this will make you who you want to be"
I take your word for it
Have one first thing in the morning
This is how I'm living now
Pour me a drink so I can wash it down
You took one look at my condition
Gave me a prescription
Said, "here this will make you who you want to be"
What if I want to be lonely?
What if I choose to be sad all the time?
You said, "take one of these only
And I'm sure you'll be changing your mind"
I wish I could sing some fiction
I wish I did not have this addiction
I wish I could just be through
After this one maybe I'll make it true
Oh no I slipped up again
Fell on my face and found a new best friend
Something in the bottle I call heaven
Something about that heaven I comprehend
Tell me do you think I could rearrange
My whole life and maybe truly change
I thought I was fooling you
But I couldn't handle the truth
You took one look at my condition
Gave me a prescription
Said, "here this will make you who you want to be"
What if I want to be lonely?
What if I choose to be sad all the time?
You said, "take one of these only"
I took them all and now I'm feeling fine
