Meds - Bruce Hornsby, Justin Vernon, Blake Mills

I’m sitting here on the phone

Just listening to the dial tone

And if I dial I hope I find nobody home

I’ve been in pain unceasing and I tried to deep breathe

The shape and texture makes a bottomless seethe

I can’t take the murk, so whatever works

I’ll take what you’ve got, to tame the beast I serve

Yes, I serve

I’ve been loving, been loving you

With a little help from the meds

With a little help from some sympathetic souls

Embraced in a tender loving hold and it’s got me on this road

I’ve been straight ahead, out the bed

Straight up and down off the ground

With a little help from some sympathetic souls

Embraced in a loving, tender hold

In a love, loving, tender hold

I’ve been loving, been loving you

With a little help from the meds

With a little help from some sympathetic souls

Embraced in a loving, tender hold

Love, love, loving, tender hold

Yes, I’ve been

I’d rather feel nothing than this

Wanted to stop feeling

Oh, we’ve all had that wish

At the edges, at the margins

This feeling starts creeping in

Gets worse and worse, more and more

But my dull eyes have brightened

Oh, they’re brighter

I’ve been loving, been loving you

With a little help from the meds

With a little help from some sympathetic souls

Embraced in a loving, tender hold

Loving, tender hold

I’ve been straight ahead, out the bed

Straight up and down off the ground

With a little help from some sympathetic souls

Embraced in a loving, tender hold, tender hold

With a little help from some

With a little help from some

With a little help from some

Embraced with a moment

Embraced in a loving, loving, tender hold, hold

I feel in pain, not ceasing

Oh, I just feel free

Whoa, make tomorrow see

Straight up and down

Straight up and down

I’m off the ground

Up and down, up and down, up and down

Pain not ceasing, I can be free

In a loving, tender hold

In a tender hold, oh, ohh
