Em
Why do they medicate us?
      Bm
We're puppets on a string that dance for you
Em
We're not gonna see our fate like
Bm
Animals that walk into a cage, no escape
Em
See what you want with your crystal ball, you're never gonna change me
       Bm
So you stay in line, can you read the sign? What do you want from me?
Em
Well something keeps me wonderful and something keeps me sane
Bm
Guess I can't get off this world's crazy train

[chorus]
              G
Because we're so sedated
                  Em7
Free us from this ball and chain
                      CaddG
There's nothing left to do, just find the strength in you
               D
Lead us to the paradise we knew


Em
To hell with your chemicals
         Bm
And your Prozac and lithium and lies
Em
We can't breathe, we can't live, we need love
         Bm
We can't let this disease run our lives

[chorus x2]

C   Em                                                C *
Oh, this is not a real life, this is not a real life
           C        Em                  C *
Living so afraid.... we're indestructable

[chorus x3] end on Em
