lyrics

This song
is a true story

Not there
I'm in the hospital bed
with an IV in my arm
no worry
no OD
just a surgery
no need for alarm
they told me
go slowly
go sleep in
no need for alarms
sleep when
you feel it
they told me
it was kinda nice

it was kinda nice
at the same time
it felt like I was dying
let me tell you why

first they put me under
anesthesia
'cause they need ta
fix my spine
it's so misaligned
so much so that it bulges out the side
so the doctors went inside of me
fixed that angle up quite nicely
you should see the X Rays
the difference it's like night and day

Not there
I'm in the hospital bed
with an IV in my arm
no worry
no OD
just a surgery
no need for alarm
they told me
go slowly
go sleep in
no need for alarms
sleep when
you feel it
they told me

and then the staff asked me
politely
if i'd like more morphine
in my IV
it's kinda crazy

I got through the operation
because of their sedating
so euphoric but in pain
I'm feeling good and I'm in pain
its so conflicting
