Wrong Remedies
Music: Lyndon Heart
Lyrics: Salome Strangelove

I’ve seen this lightning behind the clouds before
You shouldn’t be here when the storm strikes ground
And I know trouble when it’s brewin’ right in front of me
It won’t be pretty

These winds are strong
They’ve had time to churn
In waters all gone wrong
I tried to change, but it’s been too long

Sleepwalk side effects and insecurities
Are no match for this beautiful disease
It survives all the wrong remedies
Dose after dose
Because it breathes in me
It needs in me
Something to burn
Something to hurt
That’s just how passion works

Slam the shutters and pack up all the glass
Pretend the darkness is just something that’ll pass
I know you’ve got to feel like you’ve tried
But it’s not that cut and dry

This rage is wide
It’s had time to choke
On its own pride
I tried to hold it in, or did I

I know you want to help
But we both know
This life hasn’t been mine in a long time
It’s just a broken place
That I’ve embraced
So close the door and take your bag of tricks
I am not yours to fix

Sleepwalk side effects and insecurities
Cannot match this beautiful disease
It survives the wrong remedies
Dose after dose
It breathes in me
It needs in me

I’ve seen this lightning behind the clouds before
You’d best not be here when it strikes ground
