  • And I feel like I'm losing my mind
    Banging my head up against the wall
    Staring at nothing 'cause I can't sleep at night
    Can't make it stop, yeah I think too much
    What do I do? Falling apart
    I need a shock straight to my heart
    No one would want to be in my shoes right now, oh

    I don't reach for the bottle of whisky
    Straight on the rocks
    But you won't see me popping the pills
    Po-po-popping the pills
    'Cause if I want the pain to go away
    In a second make it fade
    You're the only thing that will
    You're my medicine, medicine
    My medicine, medicine
    My medicine

    You know you're an expert at complicating things
    That's how I'm wired, believe me it's no fun
    But you make a war seem like such an easy game
    Kiss me and my arguments come undone
    Down in the trenches, you are the white flag
    Make me surrender
    Want you so bad
    Baby don't stop what you started
    Don't ever be done, oh

    I don't reach for the bottle of whisky
    Straight on the rocks
    But you won't see me popping the pills
    Po-po-popping the pills
    'Cause if I want the pain to go away
    In a second make it fade
    You're the only thing that will
    You're my medicine, medicine
    My medicine, medicine
    My medicine

    You make it all better, better
    You make me feel whole
    You make it all better, better
    You make me feel whole

    I don't reach for the bottle of whisky
    No you won't see me popping the pills
    'Cause if I want the pain to go away
    In a second make it fade
    You're the only thing that will
    You're my medicine, medicine
    My medicine, medicine
    My medicine

    You make it all better, better
    You make me feel whole
    You make it all better, better
    You make me feel whole

    You make it all better, better
    You make me feel whole
    You make it all better, better
    You make me feel whole
