[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Everyday I wake up, and I take my medication
And I spend the rest of the day waiting for it to wear off
Every night I stay up late, and make my state more desperate
And I spend the rest of the night waiting for it to wear off
[Chorus]
I'm waiting for a time
When I can be without
These things that make me feel
This way all of the time
[Verse 2]
Every now and then I get an urge to drive around
Get into my car then I'll maybe go uptown
Take my medication, do my best to get it on
And I spend the rest of the night waiting for it to wear off
[Chorus]
I'm waiting for a time
When I can be without
These things that make me feel
This way all of the time
I'm waiting for a time
When I can be without
These things that make me feel
This way all of the time
[Verse 3]
Every time I say this I just know this time I mean it
But a feeling deep inside says it's okay one more time
[Chorus]
I'm waiting for a time
When I can be without
These things that make me feel
This way all of the time
This way all of the time
This way all of the time
[Post-Chorus]
Makes me feel so good
Makes me feel so fine
Makes me feel so good
Leaves me fucked up inside
[Bridge]
Medicate my days
Medicate my nights
Medicate my life
Don't it feel alright?
Don't it feel so good?
Don't it feel just fine?
Don't it feel so good?
Don't it feel just fine?
Don't it feel so good?
Leaves me fucked up inside
