The Cure

The Cure By Kevin Robey October 7, 2013 I took a pill today Just a single pill to get through the day It wasnt a dose I needed at all Take me away from these blank white walls Dullness makes the present blur There’s nothing that this pill can cure Still I drown it with a shot of caffeine Keep me alive with my hopes and dreams I felt Ok until the sun went down Now I can feel the darkness around My pupils shrink as my hands start to shake The reality returns for every hour I’m awake Wide eyed now but my thoughts are grey So lost right now that I don’t know the way Whatever the price, my skin is still clean Wandering to everything I’ve never seen Don’t tell me this isnt the way to find Answers I seek while I lose my mind This is my path, and surely isnt yours Just another day that left me wanting more
