Veronique Diabolique said we should have tabs, so they could cover City of Meds. Voila!
City of Medicine
It's been five years since a letter arrived
But I got to believe that your still alive
When your lover left you, you wrote you wanted to die
Did you succeed? Or are you still trying?
I'm living the the city of medicine
I'm giving in, I'm giving in
I'm giving in to the city of medicine
I'm giving up on games that I know I can't win
Seen through a Sunday hangover haze
I can't remember how highs lasted for days
Absolute freedom is a gift for a while
You can tell when someone gave up by the date of their style
I hear the light is like a heat is like a blanket of dirt
Keep money in the mattress and going straight to dessert
you wrote you keep it to the weekends, keep it from the deep end side
But you were always waiting for an excuse to dive
