A handful of pills; that's how I start my day
A handful of pills keeping me around
It makes me wonder is it worth it to stay?
A handful of pills; can't remember what they're for
Some of them, I think, undo what the other pills do
It's like I'm medicating the medications I'm on
All four of my doctors playing musical drugs
When the symptom stops, change the tune
A handful of pills; couldn't quit them if I tried
I think the side effects are what's keeping me alive
If you can call this living; the rattle of pills my daily song
A handful of pills. That's how I end my day.
