lyrics

JUST THE MEDICINE

We caught the lightning bugs
And put them in a jar
And sent it circling a dying star
Life flutters and flaps
And here we are

You took the morning off
And spent it in the car
Moving pictures of things
Not as they are or were
But as you hoped to forget them

It's just the medicine
It's just the medicine
It's just the medicine
You need

The dying furniture
Gives up its last gasp
Your knitted scarf
Sinks like a stone
The life you save
May be your own

It's just the medicine
It's just the medicine
It's just the medicine
You need

Stand like a lighthouse
And gaze out to sea
You've lost your way
Or perhaps you're free

It's just the medicine
You need
