lyrics

STORY:
Struggling with his problem, he separates himself into two people: his conscience and his active person to figure out his personal problems by self-analysis.

LYRICS:
I went into my room and I saw me on my bed.
I was cryin’ facin’ down with my hands up on my head.
I tried to give some comfort but I wouldn’t understand,
That some days you need some evidence for
God to give you medicine.
Can’t you see your problems are a concept or perception,
That your mind is still at war with society’s deception,
Of the truth and what has happened to your happiness,
And how you’ll get it back.

You knew the way it hurt.
You knew the way you were.
So get back to the start,
Begin with your heart,
And find out how this works.
You knew they’d be concerned,
With the medals that you’ve earned.
Oh when hearts start to shatter,
You battle with laughter.
It’s funny how we learn (these days).

That your problem is yourself.
You don’t think you need any help.
But when times get hard you go too far,
And you’re left with no one else but yourself.
You reflect on what you know.
You cry, but you don’t grow.
I wish you could finally understand,
That you wouldn’t have stood a chance.

You’re gonna need some evidence,
For God to give you medicine...
