Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 They gave me colors in a paper cup Told me I’d feel better if I just gave up Now I watch the ceiling move in slow ballet While my thoughts dissolve and drift away Pre-Chorus I don’t dream — just static snow I smile on cue and nod real slow Chorus Pill me pretty, paint me bland Tell me who I am again I don’t shake, I don’t scream I’m just one more silent machine ⸻ Verse 2 They write my name with trembling ink Adjust the dose so I forget to think The mirror grins — a medicated ghost No highs, no lows, just empty toast Pre-Chorus I miss the chaos, I miss the burn But numb is easier than hurt returned Chorus Pill me pretty, shut me down Dress my thoughts in hospital gowns Make me soft, make me sane Bleed the fight out of my brain ⸻ Bridge (haunting, stripped back — maybe lo-fi voice filter) “Do you feel better now?” “No.” “But you look better.” (beat) “Then that’s enough.” ⸻ Final Chorus (layered with more emotion, breaking down subtly) Pill me pretty, cage me well Smile for the cameras inside this hell I don’t fight, I don’t try Just watch the clouds go crawling by

Slow grunge ballad with haunting mood. Numbness, meds, and fading thoughts. Soft vocals that slowly unravel.
