Lyrics

Drink down the medicine

Drinking down the medicine, possibly referring to seeking a solution or remedy.

They know how to quench your thirst

Others know how to satisfy your needs or desires.

I've been drowning in the river lately

Feeling overwhelmed or burdened recently, expressed metaphorically as drowning in a river.

While you're digging in my dirt

While someone else is scrutinizing or intruding into personal matters.

And all the wolves will gather round to see

Facing scrutiny or judgment from others, depicted as wolves gathering.

Pick off the parts the vultures left of me, of me

Experiencing vulnerability, with others taking advantage of weaknesses.


Yeah yeah

Expressing affirmation or agreement.

Something wrong with the way I'm feeling

Acknowledging an internal emotional struggle or discomfort.

But you don't care, you don't care

Others are indifferent or unconcerned about the emotional state.

Yeah yeah

Repetition of the emotional struggle, emphasizing a lack of empathy from others.

Something wrong with the way I'm feeling

Continuation of expressing internal distress.

Yeah yeah yeah

Intensifying the emotional struggle.


Where do you go when you're alone

Pondering where one goes mentally when isolated.

Inside a mind that no one knows no one knows

Highlighting the secrecy or complexity of one's thoughts.


Yeah yeah

Reiteration of internal distress, possibly emphasizing its persistence.

Something wrong with the way I'm feeling

Repetition of the emotional struggle, emphasizing a lack of understanding or support.

Yeah yeah yeah

Intensifying the emotional struggle.

You don't care, you don't care

Reinforcing the idea that others are indifferent to the emotional state.
