Cody Johnson
Self-Medicated (Revisited)
[Verse 1]
A cynic, I'm hopeless, I'm broken
There is no light inside of me
I'm tired, I'm restless, I'm lonesome
But I can never sleep
My mind plays games when I'm alone now
You said the worst things to get inside my head
Intoxication takes control now
Self-medication takes its grip
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I'm crawling on the floor (Take deep breaths)
Your heart is racing
There's clawing at the door
Oh God, don't let 'em take me
[Chorus]
Now I have to find a way out
I have to find my voice
I'm entertaining thoughts that are no good for me
[Verse 2]
When I'm completely numb, a darkness takes me
I turn into someone I hate completely
[Pre-Chorus 2]
It's me against the world (Take cover)
You cannot fix me
And just throw me to the wolves
I'm a victim of self-pity
[Chorus]
Now I have to find a way out
I have to find my voice
I'm entertaining thoughts that are no good for me
Now I have to find a way back
I have to make a choice
I'm never losing sight of what's in front of me
[Bridge]
I've given up
I'm in for a lifetime of
Second-guessing everything that I've become (That I've become)
My mind plays games when I'm alone
Self-medicated, intoxication takes control
Now I have to find my way out
I have to find my voice
These thoughts are no good for me
[Chorus]
Now I have to find a way out
I have to find my voice
I'm entertaining thoughts that are no good for me
Now I have to find a way back
I have to make a choice
I'm never losing sight of what's in front of me
