We Were Promised Jetpacks - Medicine Lyrics






I have torn through the pages of the years I have wasted
And I've stolen all my stories, that I've copied and pasted
Is this about me now? Still about me now
I fought in an army that only fights boredom
And I've caught all my allies who were only there in peacetime
Is this about me now? Still about me now
I've ignored all the warnings and the constant reminders
And I've read the instructions, well I'll never guess
Is this about me now? Still about me now

Bring me back to life
I've stumbled and staggered too many times
Bring me back to life
Too stupid and stubborn to put up a fight.

I have torn through the pages of the years I have wasted
Then I've stolen all my stories and I've run out of patience
Is about me now? Still about me now
Give me my medicine my spoon and my bottle
And you can't blame a chancer so beat me to an anvil
And let me sleep it off, let me sleep it off

Bring me back to life
I've stumbled and staggered too many times
Bring me back to life
Too stupid and stubborn to put up a fight

Can't resist, I'm a little out of practice
I'm carved in cement, to hold off the darkness
The thoughts to think illuminate my brain

Bring me back to life
I've stumbled and staggered too many times
Bring me back to life
I've stumbled and staggered too many times

Waitin' for the fight, I'll gamble with my spine
I'm ready for the fight, to toughen up my spine.

    Rented saints row circles and squares is on the game! Been addicted to this band ever since

  11. �.... �....

    Like it is awesome

  12. I.... ....

    I like them a lot but basically all of their songs are picked octaves. I guess whatever works.

  13. b.... ....

    What's this video about my headphones suck and distort everything

    PLS COME TO BUDAPEST

    What an incredible song and what a video, my favorite in the last 3 years.

  17. I.... T....

    it's amazing!:)

  18. i.... ....

    this is just plain epic.

  19. j.... M....

    My dads work friends son us in this band

  20. H.... ....

    Whats a fomment?

  21. A.... B....

    there are many highly thought out fomments and then theres the comments like lol fart

  22. A.... W....

    Midnight.
    Lone Wolf

  23. T.... ....

    When does the narwhal bacon?

  24. M.... ....

    There are many pro's and con's to your comment. Deceit, being the worst. Though since it had a positive twist on the end, I will neither like or dislike, but comment.

  25. A.... W....

    He's not affiliated with 9gag, just familiar with it. Being affiliated means to be in close contact with. He has the right idea of them stealing "stories" though, so I would conclude he uses reddit or 4chan.

  26. B.... N....

    Ugh I can't get enough of this band. Who needs drugs when we were promised jetpacks?

  27. C.... ....

    yes because your affiliated with 9fag.

  28. D.... S....

    Is it wrong when he said "I've stolen all my stories" I automatically thought of 9gag?

  29. J.... ....

    This song makes this guy wet

  30. p.... ....

    the ''Human Error'' song and video is mainly about that... this seems to be simply about drugs

  31. M.... n....

    I think this video is about how overwhelming forces, such as love, can cause us to do crazy, out of the norm, risky things to chase that love, even though this will just cause us pain in the end.

  32. D.... H....

    One of the best live bands i have seen. Incredible. Both albums are 2 of my favourites of all time

  33. N.... ....

    Love the scottish-ness that still comes through in this guy's accent!

  35. h.... ....

    @CarlChipSanders ... Keep that to yourself

  36. N.... T....

    I have a fever... and the only prescription... is more medicine..
