Sacred

Another missed session....another popped pill....awaiting that "sweet numb" PAIGE looks at the connection between mental health and the meds..that sometimes makes more promises than results.

LYRICS

Johnny is smiling...but inside he knows it's all fake 
Sara looks in the mirror... trying not to break 
A pill gets popped, with another missed session 
Riding high... on this wave of depression 

Chorus
Medicine makes sense when you get to the root
Do the work, no feelings on mute
In case you're feeling unsure...
Just know...The pill is not the cure

Verse 2
Julie's daydreaming in class again...her teacher resorts to shaming
Another note goes home to her dismay
Another evening of blaming...
What's wrong with me? she cries
Why can't I be perfect like TV?
One eval was all it took...she's got ADHD.

Chorus
Medicine makes sense when you get to the root
Do the work, no feelings on mute
In case you're feeling unsure...
Just know...The pill is not the cure

Verse 3
Fred's got bitten nails and pulled out hair
Rocking back and forth
Many worries he could share...
If he talked to someone who cares
Hand reaches for that sweet numb
that offers very little crumbs...

Chorus
Medicine makes sense when you get to the root
Do the work, no feelings on mute
In case you're feeling unsure...
Just know...The pill is not the cure

PAIGE is a faceless, genre-fluid songwriter/ producer based in Austin, TX.

These songs were created using a hybrid workflow. I authored 100% of the lyrics, topline melody, and concept. I used AI-assisted tools for vocals and instrumentation, which I directed, edited, and arranged. All final stems were curated, mixed, and produced under my supervision. I registered the work under Moonthread Music Publishing (BMI), and I own full rights to both master and publishing.
