Whispered Remedies

When the pills don’t seem to do you right And the days bleed into sleepless nights Oh, I cry, I need some healing, in stride When your bones feel weak, your spirit’s low You’re searching for that dose to make it go But the pain, it lingers, won't say goodbye Say, do you know where the medicine flows? Where the healers with their bottles in rows Take these blues and wash them all away And when you're lost in a hazed, pharmacy maze Lookin' for a script to brighten your days Oh, this aching heart just needs its replays Doctor smiles with a script that's tried and true Heal the mind with a pill, and body too Just a dose, then another, makes it right But the soul still grieves in the silence of night There's a corner shop with a neon sign Find your cure, in those aisles so fine In the alley of forgotten dreams, a whisper Tales of a bottle promising to fix her Yet the spirit wanes, seeks a deeper fix Beneath the buzz, the soul's in a tight mix [Chorus] When you need that touch beyond the pills That soothing sound that heals the ills
