lyrics

Here’s a thought
Or a quandary really
Um, I take a medication that
If I take a certain amount
It makes me feel numb
And like I’m just watching the world.

But if I don’t take it
I am so anxious and depressed
And out of my head
That I feel everything
So nothing or everything

It should be said
that at this point in the voice-memo
Peter cleared his throat

Cough cough

But also though, I’m
I’m working on my

Sniff sniff

It should be said that at this point in the voice-memo
Peter has the sniffles

(he sniffs)

But also though
I’m working on my mindfulness practice
That is just
That is just like
A way to observe and kind of distance yourself

So are these drugs
doing what it would feel like
To be completely immersed in mindfulness?
Or like
Zen Buddhism or something?
I don’t know

Sniffle sniffle
Cough cough

Happy 4th of July
