Lyrics
This town has no mercy
This town is unforgiving and harsh.
When you're on your own
Surviving alone is challenging here.
When there's no one close to you
There's a lack of close relationships.
No place to call your home
No place feels like a true home.
In the back alley shadows
In the dark and hidden corners of the city.
My body yearns, the pain it grows
There's a growing physical and emotional pain.
A needle holds the solution
A drug offers relief from the pain.
Feel the sting no let it flow
Feel the pain and let the drug take effect.
A dangerous game - no place to hide
Engaging in a risky activity with no refuge.
I'm looking for you to keep me satisfied
Seeking someone to bring satisfaction.
Medicine man
Referring to someone with healing powers.
You hold the key - unlock the door
This person has the solution to problems.
Like a knife in your hand
Comparing the solution to a knife, implying its sharp impact.
A spell that you cast for evermore
A magical spell that has a lasting effect.
I need a shot of satisfaction
Expressing a need for immediate satisfaction.
My body aches - my blood runs cold
Physical pain and emotional numbness.
I need a killer chain reaction
Desiring a powerful and impactful reaction.
That's gonna rock me to the bone
Expecting an experience that profoundly affects.
I'm burnin' inside - i'm under the gun
Feeling intense internal heat and pressure.
You got what it takes - you know you're the one
The person possesses what is needed.
Medicine man
Reiteration of the role of the 'Medicine Man.'
You hold the key - unlock the door
Reaffirming the person's ability to solve issues.
Like a knife in your hand
(Reiteration of the knife and spell imagery)
A spell that you cast for evermore
(Reiteration of the lasting impact of the solution)
A dangerous game - no plave to hide
Re-emphasizing the danger and lack of refuge.
I'm lookin' for you to keep me satisfied
Continued search for satisfaction from the person.
Medicine man
(Reiteration of the role of the 'Medicine Man.')
You hold the key - unlock the door
(Reaffirmation of the solution)
Like a knife in your hand
(Reiteration of the knife and spell imagery)
A spell that you cast for evermore..
(Final repetition of the lasting impact of the solution)
