Recovering

Old habits die hard, growing bitter from trying to be broken
 While these comfortable routines are smothered with affection
 Well, i choose to switch between the two
 I choose whatever convinces you, that I should be allowed to
 Slip through the cracks and get back to the living
 These walls are unforgiving
 Send someone to check on me and take notes on my recovery
 One pill will get me through the day
 But I take two anyway
 When I take three pills the song begins to play
 One that won't go away. And even though I know
 One pill will get me through the day
 I take two anyway
 When I mix four pills with a drink the song starts to play
 Its in the back of my head and it's everywhere
 And it's all I can think about
 Its all spinning out of control
 For one day this thing is out of my hands
 While under severe supervision,
 Everything is, everything is
 But when unsuspected, addiction is under the radar
 And anything goes, so here I sit,
 Comatose almost
 I float between hospitals and halfway homes
 Between halfway living and halfway lying
 And I know all the awful things that no one needs to know
 I take my medicine and make them believe that i'm a better man
 One pill will get me through the day
 But I take two anyway
 When I take three pills the song begins to play
 One that won't go away. And even though I know
 One pill will get me through the day
 I take two anyway
 When I mix four pills with a drink the song starts to play
 Its in the back of my head and it's everywhere
 And it's all I can think about
 But still I hear the song
 Its everywhere
 Surrounding me and ringing in my ears.
 The perfect song will call for sedatives, sacrifice and sing-alongs
 So sing along
