1. Self Medication
Do I need a shrink or an exorcist?
All these wounds are self imposed
Lines up your arm like a list
Scars on your body that turn and twist
Numb to pain, numb to feeling, the depression is gripping tight around you
Numb to pain, numb to feeling, the depression is blowing kisses right at you
Blood, panic, scars, addiction
People can think it’s all fiction
Blood, panic, scars, addiction
People can say it’s all fiction
Blood, panic, scars, addiction
It’s our calm to the storms in our heads affliction
Blood, panic, scars, addiction
People can think it’s fiction
Blood, panic, scars, addiction
People can say it’s fiction
Blood, panic, scars, addiction
It’s our calm to the storms in our heads affliction
Do I need a shrink or an exorcist?
When wounds are self imposed
Grimace face and clenching fist
Trickling blood pressure released
Blood, panic, scars, addiction
People can think it’s all fiction
Blood, panic, scars, addiction
People can say it’s all fiction
Blood, panic, scars, addiction
It’s our calm to the storms in our heads affliction Blood, panic, scars, addiction
People can think it’s all fiction
Blood, panic, scars, addiction
People can say it’s all fiction
Blood, panic, scars, addiction
It’s our calm to the storms in our heads affliction
2 Mania
Feel the electricity you conduct
Like a racing car flashing by
Leaving a jet stream in the sky
A thousand miles an hour
Soaring high, where the eagles fly
When you’re talking with your friends
No one can keep up with the topics you change
Ten different stories all rolled into one
Where does this energy and expression come from
Mania, mania, mania is it a good day for ya?
Mania, mania, mania is it the right way for ya?
Mania, mania, mania you listenin’ to what I gotta say to ya?
Mania, mania, mania is it a good day for ya?
Mania, mania, mania is it the right way for ya?
Mania, mania, mania you listenin’ to what I gotta say to ya?
***Musical Interlude and riffs and shit***
3 Antipsychotics
Walking passed people on my way to town, thinking they are all looking at me.
Voices in my head chattering away, I don’t understand what they are saying to me
Antipsychotic’s are saving me
I’m sinking into the pits of paranoia and psychosis
Antipsychotics restore my focus
Antipsychotics restore my focus
Antipsychotics restore my focus
Tune your head into the colours and the waves sounds
Put your ear to the ground and listen to the cheers of the crowd
Antipsychotic’s are saving me
I’m sinking into the pits of paranoia and psychosis
Antipsychotics restore my focus
Antipsychotics restore my focus
Antipsychotics restore my focus
4 The Psychiatrist
Doctor of the mind
Welcome to mine, I hope you like what you find, it’s definitely one of a kind
Unique, different than all the others
It’s consumed by chaos, hidden under covers
Please let me remind you
Textbooks will only guide through
Are you observing the truth or are you being lied to?
The mind named itself, it gave everything a name, are you just part of its game?
Delving inside the insane
Delving inside the brain
Delving inside the insane
Delving inside the brain
Thoughts become lessons taught
Semblance to stability sought
Eternal battle with yourself fought
Chasing your sanity that eludes to be caught
Delving inside the insane
Delving inside the brain
Delving inside the insane
Delving inside the brain
Delving inside the insane
Delving inside the brain
Delving inside the insane
Delving inside the brain
Delving inside the insane
Delving inside the brain
Delving inside the insane
Delving inside the brain
5 Sorted out for SSRIs
Oh, is this the way they say I’m meant to feel?
Is my happiness found when I’m walking through a field?
I don't understand these lows and highs
Never mind ‘cos I’m sorted out for SSRIs
And tell me when the comedown lands
It’ll probably arrive without any sounds
Oh, in the middle of the night
It feels alright, but then tomorrow morning
Oh, oh, then you come down
Oh yeah, hot sweats wearing your dressing gown
Your head is empty like a Ghost Town
Oh, and no-one seems to know why it is
They’re giving out these SSRIs to all the kids
In the middle of the night
Normality is very, very far away
In the middle of the night
Sleep is a fight, but then tomorrow morning
Oh, oh, then you come down
Prozac, Cipramil, Priligy, Lustral, Seroxat, Faverin, Cipralex and Brintellix
Prozac, Cipramil, Priligy, Lustral, Seroxat, Faverin, Cipralex and Brintellix
In the middle of the night
It feels alright, but then tomorrow morning
Oh, oh, then you come down
Oh, oh, then you come down
Oh, what if you never come down?
In the middle of the night
It feels alright, but then tomorrow morning
Oh, oh, then you don’t come down
Oh, oh, then you don’t come down
Oh, what if you don’t come down?
6 Psychosis
7 The Art of Depression
Hallelujah (kiss the sky)
Hallelujah (kiss the sky)
Hallelujah (kiss the sky)
The sound of silence echoes by
Darkness is questioning you why
Head on the devils shoulder you begin to cry
Numb to pain, numb to lie
Immunity from any emotional tie
Dropping into the oblivion, sigh sigh sigh
Dark and silent the deepest high
Hallelujah (kiss the sky)
Hallelujah (kiss the sky)
Hallelujah (kiss the sky)
The sound of silence echoes by
Darkness is questioning you why
Head on the devils shoulder you begin to cry
Right back to the Dawn of day
Darkness is talking to you, a lot to say
Forcing sleep now, it’s the only way
To get me away from this painful day
Hallelujah (kiss the sky)
Hallelujah (kiss the sky)
Hallelujah (kiss the sky)
The sound of silence echoes by
Darkness is questioning you why
Head on the devils shoulder you begin to cry
8 Lithium
Sitting on a train with empty pain
Voices in my head keep me sane
Take this potion and swim an ocean
Ride the chaos and commotion
Today I met my friends, they’re in my head
In my head
Today I got the benz, laying in my bed
In my bed
Today I met my friends, they’re in my head
In my head
Today I got the benz, laying in my bed
In my bed
Start your walk to stabilise your thought
Reality is now yours to sought
Race is on for it to be caught
Light at the end of the tunnel for which you’ve fought
Today I met my friends, they’re in my head
In my head
Today I got the benz, laying in my bed
In my bed
Slowly getting perceptions in line
Normality arrives, it’s about time
Clear of conscious, it’s a sign
Hold your head up high, doing fine
Today I met my friends, they’re in my head
In my head
Today I got the benz, laying in my bed
In my bed
Today I met my friends, they’re in my head
In my head
Today I got the benz, laying in my bed
In my bed
9 Hibernating Insomniac
Wide awake asleep in bed
Chaos run around your head
Tossing and turning every way
Sleep eludes you however you lay
Sleeping all day to fall asleep again
The only problem is you can’t pick when
Head wide awake but it’s contents broken
Sleep provides escape but it’s only a small token
Can’t sleep, won’t sleep
Now sleeping for a week
One minute sleep plays hide and seek
The next it’s it’s yours to keep
Can’t sleep, won’t sleep
Now sleeping for a week
One minute sleep plays hide and seek
The next it’s it’s yours to keep
One stormy, sleepless, lonely night
One sleep filled, silent, dreamy night
Opposites don’t attract they fight
Complete darkness or shining light
Can’t sleep, won’t sleep
Now sleeping for a week
One minute sleep plays hide and seek
The next it’s it’s yours to keep
Can’t sleep, won’t sleep
Now sleeping for a week
One minute sleep plays hide and seek
The next it’s it’s yours to keep
