And so the knife comes down...another curtain falls
And no one hears the sound...and no one takes the call
From me and my anxiety...locked up in these four walls

I come to you now Im alone...with my defenses down
I tell you everything I need...i get down on the ground
I always know that when I go...that Ill be back again

Shocked straight--doctor can you get my medicine
Shocked straight--doctor cant you see the shape Im in
Shocked straight--doctor when you gonna let me in

If I could listen to my mind...and keep the world outside my door...
But time has opened up my eyes and shown me somethin more
Now all I want is to be free...and get up off the floor

Why cant you look into my heart...
Why cant you ever let me know
Youre always takin me apart...youre never lettin go
Theres always somethin on your mind...
This aint reality

Shocked straight--doctor can you get my medicine
Shocked straight--doctor cant you see the shape Im in
Shocked straight--doctor when you gonna let me in

Why you be so hard
Why you be so hard
Why you be so hard

I know its gonna take some time...for me to straighten out my head
To say whats on my mind...to hear those words I said
And while Im tryin to learn to feel...
You keep on tellin me...

Shocked straight--doctor can you get my medicine
Shocked straight--doctor cant you see the shape Im in
Shocked straight--doctor when you gonna let me in
Shocked straight...
Shocked straight...
Shocked straight...when you gonna let me in
Why you be so hard
Why you be so hard
Why you be so hard
