Medicine Lyrics by We Were Promised Jetpacks

In the Pit of the Stomach

2011

[Verse 1]
I've torn through the pages of the years I have wasted
And I've stolen all my stories, just copied and pasted
Is this about me now?
Still about me now
I fought in an army that only fights boredom
And I've called up my allies who're only there in peacetime
Is this about me now?
Still about me now
I've ignored all the warnings and the constant reminders
And I've read the instructions, well I'll never guess
Is this about me now?
Still about me now
[Chorus]
Bring me back to life
I've stumbled and staggered too many times
Bring me back to life
Too stupid and stubborn to put up a fight
[Verse 2]
I've torn through the pages of the years I have wasted
And I've stolen all my stories and I've ran out of patience
Is this about me now?
Still about me now
Give me my medicine, my spoon and my bottle
And you can't blame a chancer so beat me to an anvil
So let me sleep it off
Let me sleep it off
[Chorus]
Bring me back to life
I've stumbled and staggered too many times
Bring me back to life
Too stupid and stubborn to put up a fight
[Bridge]
I can't resist the lure of a practicing pessimist
To hold off the darkest of thoughts to think
Illuminate my brain
[Chorus]
Bring me back to life
I've stumbled and staggered too many times
Bring me back to life
I've stumbled and staggered too many times
[Outro]
Waiting for the fight
I'll gamble my spine
I'm ready for the fight
To toughen up my spine
