Self Medicate

I am diseased, can't take the pain.
I'd rather die than be alive inside of the sobriety.
Fuel the fire with the weed and the pills and the booze that will set me free!
Throw it away! Throw it away! Throw it away!
This is my new reckoning,
Now hear me scream!

The suffering, it burns like gasoline,
So I self medicate the pain to escape this world of shame!
Obscurity leads to severity,
So I self medicate the pain to escape this world I hate!
I self medicate!

I am dizzy from suffocating on the lies you feed,
Deny, deny your hope of sanity.
Fuel the fire with the weed and the pills and the booze that will set me free!
Throw me away! Blow me away! Throw me away!
This is my new reckoning,
Now hear me scream!

The suffering, it burns like gasoline,
So I self medicate the pain to escape this world of shame!
Obscurity leads to severity,
So I self medicate the pain to escape this world I hate!
I self medicate!

Standing above myself and watching a part of me die, I see it all just start to fade away.
Though it's true, I've always wondered how I would say goodbye to myself.

So now I fall again and I cannot pretend,
There is no resurrection!
So now I fall again, now hear me scream!

I am diseased, can't take the pain.
I'd rather die than be alive inside of the sobriety.
Fuel the fire with the weed and the pills and the booze that will set me free!
Throw it away! Throw it away! Throw it away!

The suffering, it burns like gasoline,
So I self medicate the pain to escape this world of shame!
Obscurity leads to severity,
So I self medicate the pain to escape this world I hate!
I self medicate!
