Anodyne ©2020 Stephen A Schuster

​

When you find yourself on a quest for anesthesia
So fucking depressed
By the truth that always frees ya
When you need some place to ease your troubled mind
You can sail with me
I will be your anodyne

Well I’ve heard it said, it’s getting hard to read ya
What’s inside your head
Never ought to precede ya
So when nothing is true and everybody’s lying
You can take it on faith
I will be your anodyne

When they come for you, don’t ever let them bleed ya
And when they come with food
Don’t eat what they’re trying to feed ya
Yeah in the darkest corners of your stormy mind
I’m your calmest port
I am your anodyne

Without further ado, and no further denyin’
I am right here, right now
I am your anodyne
I am right here, right now
I am your anodyne
