he said take these pills on a full stomach
like it was some kind of cruel joke
i haven't had a real meal in thirteen days
and the last one made me choke
my daily vitamin's
the only food i've got
placebo remedies
have helped me a lot
my sickness cyclical
it's all up in my head
you can starve a cold for only so long
before you find that the fever's fed
contagious criminal
i used to be so strong
the doctor says that i will live
but i can prove him wrong
i take tylenol for my head
enough codeine to knock me dead
nyquil, cherry red
top it off with sudafed
