Medicine

(album: Complex Happenings Reduced To A Simple Design - 2021)

Your sympathy is suffocating me
That's why I'm not looking for sympathy
Petting healing injuries
Opens them up again, that's it
No monologues or monocles or monologues
Praising loss of insecurities
Brings them back around, around and around to us

It's hard to tell the differences
Between an insult and a compliment
It's hard to tell the differences
Between medicine and poison
'Cause it hides in the dose
'Cause it hides in the dose

Your company is suffocating me
That's why I don't like society
Those tiny, petty compliments
They crank up the spotlight straight on me
No monologues or monocles or monologues
Praising loss of insecurities
Brings them back around, around and around to us

It's hard to tell the differences
Between an insult and a compliment
It's hard to tell the differences
Between medicine and poison
'Cause it hides in the dose

No vaccine against disbelief
No vaccine for disbelievers
No pills, no cure
Symptoms of isolation
No vaccine against disbelief
No vaccine for disbelievers
No pills, no cure
Symptoms of isolation
No vaccine against disbelief
No vaccine for disbelievers
No pills, no cure
Symptoms of isolation

It's hard to tell the differences
Between an insult and a compliment
It's hard to tell the differences
Between medicine and poison
'Cause it hides in the dose
