Sophomania

I hear their whis pers in the night
They're calling for me as I'm being
watched by sleepless eyes (Sleepless eyes)
I hear them all suffocating, overdosing on Ritalin and Adderall
Inside of these hospital walls

They tell me I'm sick and that they've got the cure
Every move I make leaves me more impure
They strap me to my gurney, wrists and ankles secured
I don't know how much more of this I can endure

This is grandiose
Medicine, oh medicine

Drain me (Drain me)
All you ever do is drain me
Until there's nothing left
Oh you're the talk of the town,
someone to look up to
But always a letdown

I hear their laughter in the night
Surgeons and serpents
crawling toward me try to drain my life
(Drain my life)
I know they all are acting like they care
but when it gets to curtain call
Their shadows come out to dance on the walls

With pointed toes and another dose
Just another pill to hold you close
Oh never even been properly diagnosed
Starting to think this might be a bad case of grandiose

This is grandiose
Medicine without being diagnosed
This is grandiose
Medicine, oh medicine

Drain me (Drain me)
All you ever do is drain me
Until there's nothing left
Oh you're the talk of the town, someone to look up to
But always a letdown
Oh you're the talk of the town (Drain me)
Someone to look up to (All you ever do is drain me)
Oh you're the talk of the town (Drain me)
Someone to look up to (All you ever do is drain me)
But always a letdown
Until there's nothing left
