“Medicine”
By: Steve Everett & Jess Dondero
Verse 1
I’m in trouble / Oh she wore the red dress
It’s got me feelin’ young and reckless
I was planning on leaving alone
& It can’t be right but it don’t feel wrong
Pre-Chorus
Now I’m ordering shots at the bar
We can blame the booze if it goes too far
This is stupid / We’re back in the loop
As both lean in for that
Chorus
Medicine / Medicine
I just wanna feel good again / Good again
I don’t care if it’s temporary
I need the fix that you always give me
So cook it up / Cook it up / Gimme that medicine
Verse 2
It spilled over to the parking lot
Now we’re kissing in your car with the doors unlocked
All our friends are back inside
Don’t know where we are but they’re not surprised
Pre-Chorus
While I was buying us drinks all night
You were cutting ties with a boy you like
This is it / We can’t resist / As we both lean in for that
Bridge
Once the aftermath sets in are we back to lovers or just friends
Do we pretend that it never even happened
