Poison Pill

In love with a feeling
We're chasing a ghost
If we got what we wanted, would we ever even know?
Twisting the meaning, 'til it fits in the frame
There's a gun in the mirror, but it doesn't kill the pain

I can't believe the medicine's the poison pill
Cure my disease, I'm running out of blood to spill
(There's always gonna be a new low)
Overdosing on placebo
Overdosing on placebo

We're trapped in the middle
Taking turns with the blame
It's all treading water as we're circling the drain
It's time to smile for the camera, yeah
Pretend everything's fine
There's no real interaction, we just memorize our lines

And I can't believe the medicine's the poison pill
Cure my disease, I'm running out of blood to spill
(There's always gonna be a new low)
Overdosing on placebo
Overdosing on placebo

If I open the bottle, will the elixir heal me
Or will it kill the last thing?
Oh!
Overdosing on placebo!

I can't believe the medicine's the poison pill
Cure my disease, I'm running out of blood to spill
(There's always gonna be a new low!)
I can't believe the medicine's the poison pill
Cure my disease, I'm running out of blood to spill
(There's always gonna be a new low)
