Anodyne Lyrics by Arankai

A Portrait of Red

2025

[Intro]
I don't think I'm sick, I think I need new medicine
Try to drown the noise but it comes back to life
[Verse 1]
Metal to my temple, think I lost control
There's a pill under my tongue for my mind to blow
There's a nail on the wall where I hang my head
I put it there so I don't lose it again
Too close for comfort, now my only friend is liquid sin
I need a miracle to finally make this end
[Pre-Chorus]
(I've been here before)
[Chorus]
I don't think I'm sick, I think I need new medicine
Try to drown the noise but it comes back to life again
So give me Anodyne, tell me I'll be fine
Or am I just flawed by design?
[Post-Chorus]
Flawed by design
[Verse 2]
No way out this time, am I flawed by design?
Hear me out, hush, clawing tooth and nail
I am the prodigal son
And I know I'm not the only one
Madness addicts, habitual anarchists
Heaven, we wouldn't know it
But if there's hell, we've seen it
[Pre-Chorus]
Metal to my temple, think I lost control
There's a pill under my tongue for my mind to blow
There's a nail on the wall where I hang my head
I put it there so I don't lose it again
[Chorus]
I don't think I'm sick, I think I need new medicine
Try to drown the noise but it comes back to life again
So give me Anodyne, tell me I'll be fine
Or am I just flawed by design? Yeah
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
So give me Anodyne, tell me I'll be fine
Or am I just flawed by design?
Flawed by design
There's no way out this time
Am I flawed by design?
