Uppers or Downers

Lost in the haze In this maze of my mind Chasing shadows of dreams I can't seem to find Got a pocket full of pills But they don't heal the pain Just numb the edges Of this madness in my brain Walking on a wire Playing with the fire Searching for a light But the bottle keeps me up all night With every step I take The more I seem to break Guess there's not much at stake Don't know if they're uppers or downers Got nothing from over the counter Mixing my prescriptions With all of my addictions Testing my convictions Wonder if I'd be better pushing up daisies Just a little more and my heart may seize Maybe I'm just going crazy Sippin' on this potion Try'na find some devotion But the demons in my head Keep stirrin' up commotion Every day's a battle Try'na stay in motion Try'na go through life sober What a crazy notion [Verse 2] My brain's moving so fast That I need a tracheostomy Just to comprehend All the words spillin' out of me Just bleed me dry I need it awfully [Chorus] Don't know if they're uppers or downers Got nothing from over the counter Mixing my prescriptions With all of my addictions Testing my convictions Wonder if I'd be better pushing up daisies Just a little more and my heart may seize Maybe I'm just going crazy
