Sugar Pills

Please tell me, "it's gonna be OK"
I'll hang on every word in what you say
Note to self-loathing is not the way
I prefer to live, yet I obey
But I can see the writing on the wall
Words in letters ten feet tall
Consequences without change
Call it paranoia, anxiety
Or pure irrationality
Something I can't explain
A million thoughts I can't control
Give me the script and I will play the role
Deception for an ounce of hope
Whatever helps me cope
For peace of mind alone
I'll take deception for an ounce of hope
The only optimism that I know
Is cautious at best, fearing the worst
By Lexapro-curing Zolofty dreams
I manage to get by in this routine
So, give me sugar pills, make me believe
The placebo's all I need
Its effect will keep me sane
Why am I so worried all the time
And scared to death of what I'll find
Tomorrow when I wake?
