See the ranting of the man,
They think he's angry with them.

He finds it's hard to see in the wind,
Overshadowed by the fearsome rind.

He never falls asleep
Villagers think he is blind
He never walks with a flock
Dragons knock; wolves mock.

He'd like to listen to one crake
All night; waits for it to be awake
When the crake starts singing its song
He realizes how to stop the chimaera.

It's his painkiller, painkiller
He doesn't need any filler
Now his heart has a thriller
He no longer wants to be a killer.

-----------------------------------------------------
Chimaera­ is a mythological creature that is
a combination of lion, goat, and snake.

I don't want to be just a happy pill

or something that gives you euphoria

love is more than smiles and ***

the older you get the painful it is to know

So let me be the painkiller to every battle scar you have

The nicotine to your cigarette as it embraces your lungs more than I can

In a way where love can always be found
we need pain in order to know we are alive

When I feel pain
I just wish to know
Whose painkiller works?
Beyond anything

Nothing more.

I wake up with a headache
I knew I shouldn't have stayed up so late
'twas so foolish to hope that I'd understand your game

I know what I gotta do
Too lazy to get outta bed for you
And gulp it down with a glass of water to ease this pain

I see now what I saw before
I didn't know what it was for sure
Till it worked just like paracetamol

I woke up
There it was
Once that killed
Without a cause

Those dreams that turned into nightmares
Those arms that gave away time shares
Feels like history since the last time I needed help but still

There's life waiting to be celebrated
It's no longer so complicated
Thanks to my prayers from the day I wanted more from life

And for the small white pill

She took a Motrin
And she immediately dissolved
Because all she had was pain

You numb me
You soothe me

Like Xanax
Klonopin

I don't need meds with you
You're my own Mary Jane

I want you to be my ******
Take me so much higher

I know this isn't love
But, baby, you're my drug

Take the load off my shoulders
Weightlifter
You're like a drug, I'm not sober
*Painkiller
