**Verse 1**
I swallowed a pill for a promise of light,
Bitter on my tongue as chemicals storm my vein,
Little blue saviors whisper hope in endless night,
Yet numb hues remain—clouded skies and rusted pain.
**Pre-Chorus 1**
Every dose was meant to stitch the shattered mind,
But vibrant colors vanish as ties unwind.
**Chorus**
They said these pills would lift me from despair,
But I'm adrift, lost in synthetic air.
Screams echo louder than the cures they deploy,
Antidepressants can’t silence this relentless roar.
**Verse 2**
Dreams of clarity drown in a synthetic blue,
Nightmares dance where numb shadows come through,
A chemical lie wraps hope in fragile relief,
While scars and stitched grins murmur purity’s grief.
**Pre-Chorus 2**
Once I hoped for a future bathed in brilliant light,
Now every promise crumbles beneath the weight of night.
**Chorus**
They said these pills would lift me from despair,
But I'm adrift, lost in synthetic air.
Screams echo louder than the cures they deploy,
Antidepressants can’t silence this relentless roar.
**Bridge**
Where did that promise vanish in the calm of this storm?
I grit my teeth, tasting ash from a pyre worn,
Antistress vows shatter like cracks on a broken screen,
Ripping down facades to reveal truths once unseen.
**Chorus / Outro**
They said these pills would light the dark with hope,
Yet I'm left chasing echoes, barely able to cope.
In the dungeon of my mind, chasing illusions to be free,
No pharmaceutical fix can unlock the real me.
But scattered in ruins, I still find a spark to ignite,
A sunrise emerging from the folds of endless night.
I'll shatter these chains, break free of this cage,
Writing new colors on my scars—page by page.
