Medicine
Unraveling Secrets: The Medicine We Avoid
Lyrics
When everyone was asking where you were
Expressing a moment when people were curious about your whereabouts
I said "oh no, I don't know"
Claiming ignorance or uncertainty when questioned about your location
When everyone in town was searching round
Highlighting a time when the community was actively looking for you
I felt so bad, you were all alone
Feeling a sense of guilt or remorse as you were left alone during the search
They headed out to search
Describing others embarking on a quest to find you
They were checking all the places you might have been
Detailing the thorough search of possible locations you might have visited
The diner up the road, the church that's closed or the beer house where you liked drinking
Mentioning specific places checked during the search, including a diner, closed church, and a preferred beer house
Why didn't you take your medicine?
Raising the question of why you neglected to take necessary medication
Why are we in this mess again?
Expressing frustration at finding oneself in a problematic situation again
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Repeating the frustration with an emphatic "yeah"
I tried to clear my head, tried to get away
Narrating an attempt to clear one's mind and escape from the situation
I was making the great escape
Indicating the pursuit of a "great escape" from current circumstances
About to live a life spent on the run
Anticipating a life on the run, suggesting a desire for freedom
I was packing my old suitcase
Packing belongings in preparation for the escape
Why didn't you take your medicine?
Reiterating the inquiry about not taking prescribed medicine
Why are we in this mess again?
Expressing frustration and confusion over recurring problems
It was just about the time
Referring to a specific moment in the narrative
I'd made up my mind
Deciding on a course of action or choice
I was just about to walk outside
Being on the verge of leaving a place or situation
There you were peering through the blinds
Encountering your presence unexpectedly
And I screamed at the top of my lungs
Expressing strong emotions, possibly frustration or surprise
I told you all I'm innocent
Asserting innocence loudly and emphatically
You tried to blame me but I'm innocent
Facing accusations but maintaining innocence
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Repeating frustration with an emphatic "yeah"
I told you all I'm innocent
Reaffirming innocence in response to accusations
I haven't seen you in so long
Expressing a long period of time without encountering you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Repeating frustration with an emphatic "yeah"
I told you all I'm innocent
Reiterating the claim of innocence
I haven't seen you in so long
Highlighting a prolonged absence of seeing you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Repeating frustration with an emphatic "yeah"
I told you all I'm innocent
Restating the assertion of innocence
I haven't seen you in so long
Expressing a significant duration without encountering you
