I need ten milligrams to feel better
Because I'm feelin' rather ill
Don't back away, it's not contagious
Some even say that it's not real
Some people say, there's nothin' wrong with me
Some people think I should be, killed
There's contagions in that office
Makin' monsters out of fear

I need ten milligrams to feel better
Because I'm feelin' kind of sick
I've heard it all before, pervert, misled, leg up for sports
I'm beggin' for the comfort of my skin
Some people say, there's somethin' wrong with me
Some people love me how I am
But if findin' the cure means losin' friends, family, and more
Then honestly it just is what it is

I need ten milligrams to feel better
Can you help me find my fix?
I've thought it out so long
Moved out, grew up, had kids and all the symptoms they just seem to persist
So will you say, there's somethin' wrong with me
So will you take me how I am?
Maybe this little glass, ester vial and blister pack
Can make this home feel home again
I need ten milligrams to get better
