Power or Placebo

Is it false discovery we're going through
Or my mind telling me it's hit the truth
Twenty years inveigled by a wonder drug
Or lives saved by a chemical so where's your proof

Power or placebo, the sugar pill?
Potency or persuasion or deluded thrills?

We once believed in the magic beans
We believed and so it set us free (or so it seemed)
But sometimes fantasy would turn to disconnect
Here's the sugar pill - suck it and see

Power or placebo, the sugar pill?
Potency or persuasion or deluded thrills?

All the while, we trusted the evidence
No false hopes, we used our intelligence
And the endgame was never predicted
Blind faith didn't make a blind difference

Power or placebo, the sugar pill?
Potency or persuasion or deluded thrills?
