lyrics

She texts back too quickly
But I don't adhere strictly
To all these social norms and so
I'll make what I want out of it

But I respond slow
Not out of precaution, but memories I've known
You can take what you want out of it
You can take what you want away

To start new life we shed old skin
These habits we've been hiding in
You know, they follow me around
And keep me on the ground

We're all self medicating
Animals that crave relating
I use people I was not prescribed

Like beasts in street clothes
Unaware
Chasing highs without a care
You've been my twelve week addiction


Chase down feelings, over-think
Using water to chase drinks
Couldn't deal with shades of blue
Serves me right you'd see right through me

And reflect back what I am
Bruised, abusive, and a sham
of what i used to be
Using you to hide from me
Clearly showing I stopped growing

You should take what you want now from me
Most people take it anyway, and so I thought that I would say

Popping people in the form of pills
The daily hit to get my fill
I know
I'll end up all alone cause

When you refuse to change your ways
You've chained yourself to numbered days
I know
I've been there and I've found
I've found that

We're all self medicating
Animals that crave relating
I use people I was not prescribed

Like beasts in street clothes
Unaware
Chasing highs without a care
You've been my twelve week addiction

And is my tendency to look for someone new to save
Reflective of a deeper need of saving?
Or is it just 'cause

We're all self medicating
Animals that crave relating
I've used people I was not prescribed

Like beasts in street clothes
Unaware
Chasing highs without a care
Without a care, without prescription


And I can feel you reaching out
I'll reach back when my heart comes back around
