[Verse 1] Always tired all the time Crawling up this steep incline This body aches, with familiar shakes Of a sickness benign My eyes will quiver in my head And my breath runs hot with words unsaid And my stomach turns, when I learn About everything you do instead [Chorus] Take a pill, down a shot of hope Attempt to find another way to help me cope And I'm always prone to being alone And I'm falling down this slope [Verse 2] Cold sweats in the dead of night Illuminated truths in the pale moonlight Of secrets spread from his bed Of sickness and insight But my eyes quiver with some hidden dread My breath runs hot with words unsaid And my stomach turns, when will I learn That everything you always do is all in my head [Chorus] Take a pill, down a shot of hope Attempt to find another way to help me cope
And I'm always prone to being alone And I'm falling down this slope I'll never be the person that you want me to be You'll always be swimming in someone else's sea But if the time's alright, and you're lonely tonight I can tell you what it's like to be empty [Bridge] This headache will not go away Rational thought is lead astray This fever courses through my brain Makes tough the tasks of the mundane And as I suffer I begin to see There's never a refrain [Chorus] Take a pill, down a shot of hope Attempt to find another way to help me cope And I'm always prone to being alone And I'm falling down this slope I'll never be the person that you want me to be You'll always be swimming in someone else's sea But if the time's alright, and you're lonely tonight I can tell you what it's like to be empty
