Lithium Overdose

Wretched. Fatally wounded.
Save me from myself.

A tormented mind
that nothing can appease.
A stain on our conscience.
A tormented mind
now running on empty.

A stain on our conscience.
Help me find my way back
to healing. Take me to your
artificial paradise.

Feed me the lies I’m dying to hear.

I need this illusion
to make it through.
I need a shoulder
to rest my head on.

Bring me serenity
so I can close my eyes
on this world. Take me
to your artificial paradise.

I need an illusion
to hide my insanity.
Give me the strength I need
to carry on.
Save me…

I can stare at the enemy
in the mirror’s reflection.
