Medicine
Dead Girls Academy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Round and round like a whirlwind
Of sorrow, I'm not sorry
For the things I never did
Oh my dear the insanity
We're spinning like a hurricane tragically
Tomorrow you'll be sorry
Can't you see
That what you've sewn
Is what you reaped
So let me go
I'm not sorry
For being honest
It's what you wanted
To be my medicine
So I wrote this letter (so I wrote this letter)
To my future (to my future)
I'm just a loser (I'm just a loser)
Waiting for the end
Where I begin
Oh my dear, you're a fucking mess
Coming from a guy that is second best
I'm sorry, oh, so sorry
That I can't apologize
Oh my lord, when you're next to me
You're killing me slow there's no remedy
My sickness, you're my poison
But you're still my antidote
Can't you see
That what you've sewn
Is what you reaped
So let me go
I'm not sorry
For being honest
It's what you wanted
To be my medicine
So I wrote this letter (so I wrote this letter)
To my future (to my future)
I'm just a loser (I'm just a loser)
Waiting for the end
Where I begin
Fucking yeah!
May the bridges you burn
Light the way
May the bridges you burn
Light the way
I'm not sorry
For being honest
It's what you wanted
To be my medicine
So I wrote this letter (so I wrote this letter)
To my future (to my future)
I'm just a loser (I'm just a loser)
Waiting for the end
Where I begin!
Where I begin!
Where I begin!
Oh my god, here we go again!
Oh my god, here we go again! (Where I begin!)
Oh my god, here we go again!
Oh my god, here we go again! (Where I begin!)
Oh my god, here we go again!
Oh my god, here we go again! (Where I begin!)
Oh my god, here we go again!
Oh my god, here we go again!
The song "Medicine" by Dead Girls Academy is about a toxic relationship in which both parties are aware of the negative impact they have on each other, but continue to stay together regardless. The lyrics suggest that the relationship is like a never-ending cycle of pain and regret, with both parties feeling sorry for different reasons.
The chorus of the song states, "I'm not sorry for being honest, it's what you wanted to be my medicine." This reveals that the relationship is like a drug, with both parties depending on each other for comfort and validation. The singer acknowledges that they should end the relationship and move on, but they are unable to let go.
In the bridge of the song, the lyrics "May the bridges you burn light the way" suggest that the singer is willing to let go and move on, but understands that it will not be easy. The song ends with the repetition of the line "Oh my god, here we go again," reinforcing the idea that the cycle of pain and regret will continue unless the singer can find the strength to break free.
