Medisin Lyrics - The Classic Crime

What great risk to truly live? We could die alone 

Self-proclaimed meaning of bliss 

Is getting what we're owed 

It's always getting what we're owed 

I am like a machine all that I really need is medisin 

And then I'll fall fast asleep 

In my dreamlike state I'll pretend I'm unscathed 

But when I wake up my resilience fades 

When I wake up my resilience fades 

How long, how long? 

How long, long? 

I know there's more to life than slavery 

I'm tired of dying 

I know there's more to life than drinking 

This soul-sick medisin 

Oh no, no, I'll never listen to what I'm told 

At twenty-four, you'd think I'd hold my speech 

Instead, I'll mix you a cocktail, some truth and some slander 

And never practice what I preach, I never practice what I preach 

How long, how long? 

How long, long? 

I know there's more to life than slavery 

I'm tired of dying 

I know there's more to life than drinking 

This soul-sick medisin 

I know there's more to life than slavery 

I'm tired of dying 

I know there's more to life than drinking 

This soul-sick medisin 

I know there's more to life 

I know there's more to life 

I know there's more 

I know there's more to life than drinking 

This soul-sick medisin
