'I'm better' you cry But there are tears in your eye And I beg you to please comply Don't write that goodbye In three months you'll hear sirens Not for you, but who can tell All you can feel is the cold iron And that hospital smell Throw away the notes you hid Like the marks underneath your sleeves The medicine is out of reach Just like the recovery they sing in bold lights

'I'm better' you cry But there are tears in your eye And I beg you to please comply Don't write that goodbye In three months you'll hear sirens Not for you, but who can tell All you can feel is the cold iron And that hospital smell Throw away the notes you hid Like the marks underneath your sleeves The medicine is out of reach Just like the recovery they sing in bold lights
