Lyrics

Drop

I take the pill and I fade

I take the pill and I fade

Verse 1

Orange bottle on the counter

I don't read the label no more

Doctor said a couple weeks

That was back in twenty-four

Now I'm counting them like minutes

Little chalky saviors in my palm

Swallow two to feel a third one

Swallow three to feel calm

Pre-Chorus

And you left in the spring

Now it's winter in my chest

Every refill feels like medicine

Every medicine feels like a test

Chorus

I don't want to need it

But I need it tonight

I don't want to feel it

So I kill it tonight

You took the good part with you

So I'm numbing what's left

I don't want to need it

But I need it tonight

Drop

I take the pill and I fade

I take the pill and I fade

Verse 2

Missed your call on a Tuesday

Phone was buzzing on the rug

I was somewhere past the ceiling

Somewhere warm and far above

I write your name on the mirror

Watch it fog and disappear

I keep a photo in my wallet

And a habit I can't steer

Pre-Chorus

'Cause you left in the spring

Now it's winter in my chest

Every refill feels like medicine

Every medicine feels like a test

Chorus

I don't want to need it

But I need it tonight

I don't want to feel it

So I kill it tonight

You took the good part with you

So I'm numbing what's left

I don't want to need it

But I need it tonight

Bridge

Mama prays I'll be alright

Mama prays I'll be alright

Half awake and half alive

Counting down till morning light

Chorus

I don't want to need it

But I need it tonight

I don't want to feel it

So I kill it tonight

You took the good part with you

So I'm numbing what's left

I don't want to need it

But I need it tonight

Drop

I take the pill and I fade

I take the pill and I fade

I take the pill and I fade
