Lb. Of Cure

Metal Church


You see my life is rather simple 
I'm just another face 
And all your textbooks 
All you know 
Will soon construct the case 
Warped emotions like a river 
Everywhere a bend 
And what we cannot hold together 
We try to keep within 

Listen doctor you cannot help me 
The cure that's in a jar 
All the needless all the pills 
I think its gone too far 
Now the pain is really blinding 
I'm crawling up the wall 
Try to hold on 
Try to stop it 
I think I've lost it all 

Can't you see just where the troubles 
All are in my head 
Iron bars that keep me safe 
While strapped here on this bed 
You've poked and probed and podded me 
So often times I've cried 
Now I pray on bended knee 
God just let me die 

Count the ceiling tiles above 
As you wheel me down the hall 
Another treatment once a week 
I'm losing all recall
