You only feel relief
when your bath water is red,
you only feel safe
when you choke down your meds,
You only feel blessed
when mania succumbs,
you only feel yourself
when your body is numb.

You only feel relief
when your bath water is red,
you only feel safe
when you choke down your meds,
You only feel blessed
when mania succumbs,
you only feel yourself
when your body is numb.
