Heal Songtext
I came to you looking for relief
Hollow-eyed and shaking like a leaf
You were safe and warm, that′s why I stayed
Praying that the rush would never fade
Anesthetized
And hypnotized
How am I supposed to heal
If this medication isn't real
And if the needing never stops
How long will it be before I drop
In our game of co-dependency
Who needed who, well it was plain to see
That soothing calm you placed inside my head
Induced a kind of mania instead
But I′m so high
That I don't mind
How am I supposed to heal
If this medication isn't real
And if the needing never stops
How long will it be before I drop
It should get better the more I take
Waiting round for the fever to break
One more round and that′s all she wrote
But the poison was the antidote
Sugar-coat it if you will
But you′re no cure, you're just another pill
How am I supposed to heal
If this medication isn′t real
And if the needing never stops
How long will it be before I drop
How am I supposed to heal
When emptiness is all I feel
I don't need it, thanks a lot
How long will it be before
They tag my toe and close the drawer
How long will it be before I drop
Hollow-eyed and shaking like a leaf
You were safe and warm, that′s why I stayed
Praying that the rush would never fade
Anesthetized
And hypnotized
How am I supposed to heal
If this medication isn't real
And if the needing never stops
How long will it be before I drop
In our game of co-dependency
Who needed who, well it was plain to see
That soothing calm you placed inside my head
Induced a kind of mania instead
But I′m so high
That I don't mind
How am I supposed to heal
If this medication isn't real
And if the needing never stops
How long will it be before I drop
It should get better the more I take
Waiting round for the fever to break
One more round and that′s all she wrote
But the poison was the antidote
Sugar-coat it if you will
But you′re no cure, you're just another pill
How am I supposed to heal
If this medication isn′t real
And if the needing never stops
How long will it be before I drop
How am I supposed to heal
When emptiness is all I feel
I don't need it, thanks a lot
How long will it be before
They tag my toe and close the drawer
How long will it be before I drop
