Take the Pill

Take the pill

I don't need it

I'm fine without it

Take the pill

 

Take the pill

it chokes emotions

renders me sexless

take the pill

 

why function without it

why try to continue on knowing

that your normal scares everyone else

you know your siblings are scared of you

 

Take the pill

it's only going to break you a little

after all why not bother feeling anything at all

when all you do is just get angry you are always angry

take the pill

 

It's a cocktail now

one in the morning, three at night

they check under your tongue now

you don't need sanity

 

They'd rather you be emotionally dead and fast food smiles

take the pill
