Placebo Effect

The skies are closing, alone with the pain
Do I break the pattern or do I break the chain
The feeling's contagious, it gets trapped in your mind
Soon you get used to knowing your brain's so unkind
So where do we go from here, what is the plan
Surrounded by all my fears, can't go forward and don't wanna go back
Is it worse when it builds up or when it comes crashing down
Is it worse to follow the destructive path or to die from just turning around

A placebo effect is a trick of the brain
A cycle of words, a repeated phrase
Through impact of what the brain's wanting to do
Thе feelings and thoughts, it can make them all true
Yеs, I deserve this, my wish is my mind's commands
I've certainly earned this, my wish is my mind's command
Sometimes it's easier if you don't even try
Cheers to the ones who don't deserve to get better

My body's aching and my heart is breaking
The weight of the world's crashing down
Right onto my skin
But I can't let it in
When you're scared of the dark lonely nights just wait for the sunrise
The light finds us all in its own certain time
It's harder than it sounds but the sound is real nice
My body's aching and my heart is breaking
The weight of the world's crashing down
Right onto my skin
But I won't let it in
When you're scared of the dark lonely nights just wait for the sunrise
The light finds us all in its own certain time
It's harder than it sounds but the sound is real nice

A placebo effect is a trick of the brain
A cycle of words, a repeated phrase
Through impact of what the brain's wanting to do
The feelings and thoughts, it can make them all true
So I'll tell myself that soon I'll be better
It takes more than that, but I'll put in the effort
Rinse and repeat and let go of the gray
We'll be better someday
