Doctor told me I should take the “Proper Dose”
after The Story So Far
Can’t see through the smoke
of the fire in my mind
Filling the hollow inside
with prescription medicine
Watching the hands moving
to count the minutes
wasted feeling empty and alone
Black hole with no remorse
I swallow everything
except prescription medicine
doctor said that I should take
Because I’m not okay
I wanna feel okay
Because I’m not okay
I wanna feel okay
