(Verse 1) Sunlight bleeds on the ceiling Another day I'm not feeling Pulled the blanket over my head Whispered all the things the therapist said Breathe in, count to four, and then release But the quiet hum of the dread won't cease (Chorus) And the little white pill makes the world go still, For a little while, a little until The colors come back, and I almost smile It chases the grey for a little while But the little white lie is it sets you free Then it packs up its bags and it leaves me (Verse 2) I came down slow, I did it right Fought the hunger through the night Sweat it out and paid the cost Thought that I had found what I lost But the chemical sheen has finally faded And the hole I was in was just waiting, unabated (Chorus) And the little white pill made the world go still For a little while, a little until The colors came back, and I almost smiled It chased the grey for a little while But the little white lie was it set me free Now it's gone and you see, it's just me (Bridge) And I'm clean, but I'm not clear The same old face in the mirror here The medicine's gone, but the malady stays A different kind of, a different kind of haze (Outro) Just me and the quiet hum... Yeah, it's just me and the quiet hum... Thought I fixed what was broken inside I just went for a ride... and came back empty. [outro]
