about

Mental Health is so very misunderstood. In addition to the social stigma, there are rampant misconceptions about the help we seek. This song wants to let you know that you are not alone.

lyrics

LYRICS

Medicate me just erase me
Dull me down don’t have to face me
Medicate me just unlace me
Slow me up ‘til there’s no trace of me

Whittle down help me sleep
Change my body endlessly
All my angst can go on leave
But understand this is not happy

Medicate me just displace me
Turn me off and never chase me
Medicate me, might disgrace me
Drown me out but don’t replace me

Swallow fast my mind’s repast
Neurotransmitters march en masse
Jump to synapse don’t collapse
But understand I did not want this trap

Medicate me lose your faith in me
Walk away one last embrace me
Medicate me don’t debase me
Fake a smile and run apace of me

Watch me fall hit that wall
Pretty potion for last call
Up the spoonful just once more
But understand this isn’t me at all

Fall down
Fall all the way down
Cry out
Cry out
Fall down
Fall all the way down
Cry out
Cry out

Medicate me figure eight me
Watch the whole world just negate me
Medicate me just postdate me
Hope someday I recreate me
