You give me the pills

I take and don’t ask why

Maybe they’ll make me feel

like I don’t wanna die

Don’t need the thrills

that I used to crave

I just want to lay down and

gaze at the sky

Maybe they’ll make me feel

like I can fly.

At best, I hope I am no longer

depressed.

Just do my job and let the rest follow

I may be hollow, but I still have a soul

brain and heart to follow this bag of bones

around with a tattooed smile on my face

if you knew my past, that smile would be erased

I may be shallow and jaded now

but at least I don’t frown

I just take those happy pills

and smile all around

like I said with pills, I don’t need no thrills

Just come and stare at the created sky

with nothing in your mind and wonder why.
