Lyrics:
Wake up to a cloudy day
Dark rolls in and it starts to rain
Staring out to the cage-like walls
Time goes by and the shadows crawl
Crushin' Candy Crush-ing pills
Got no job, mom pays my bills
Textin', Nexus, get my feels
Sweatin' bullets, Netflix-chills
World's out there singin' the blues
Twenty more dead on the evening news
Think to myself: "really, what's the use?"
I'm just like you, I was born to lose
Why oh why can't you just fix me?
When all I want's to feel numb
But the medication's all gone
Why oh why does God hate me?
When all I want's to get high
And forget this so-called life
I am so frickin' bored
Nothing to do today
I guess I'll sit around and medicate (I medicate)
I am so frickin' bored
Nothing to do today
I guess I'll sit around and medicate (I medicate)
Can't wait to feel better than I ever will
Attack that shit like a kid on Benadryl
Chase it down with a hopeful smile
Hate myself, if I can go for miles
They say family is all you need
Someone to trust can help you breathe
Inhale that drug, but you start to choke
You follow the outs of an inside joke
Why oh why can't you just fix me?
When all I want's to feel numb
But the medication's all gone
Why oh why does God hate me?
Cause I've seen enough of it, heard enough of it, felt enough of it
I've had enough of it
I am so frickin' bored
Nothing to do today
I guess I'll sit around and medicate (I medicate)
I am so frickin' bored
Nothing to do today
I guess I'll sit around and medicate
Medicate
Medicate
Medicate
Medicate
Superman is a hero
But only when his mind is clear though
He needs that fix like the rest of us
So he's got no fear when he saves that bus
All the stars in the Hollywood Hills
Snapchat Live while they pop them pills
All those flavors of the rainbow
Too bad that shit don't work though
Your friends are high right now
Your parents are high right now
That hot chick's high right now
That cop is high right now
The president's high right now
Your priest is high right now
Everyone's high as fuck right now
And no one's ever coming down
I am so frickin' bored
Nothing to do today
I guess I'll sit around and medicate (I medicate)
I am so frickin' bored
Nothing to do today
I guess I'll sit around and medicate
Medicate
Medicate
Medicate
Medicate

Great song, the singer is very talented, difficult to get it so spot on like that

[@hazingamy6846]

This is much better than other performances ive seen. The bass players backing vocals suck...ALWAYS flat

[@BamaPewPew]

“Everyone is high AF right now and no ones ever coming down” ain’t that the damn truth

[@michaelptrkcovers6422]

2020 is high right now

[@waxydabz8205]

Song should have been bigger than it was

[@waxydabz8205]

​@michaelptrkcovers6422 it sure was lol

[@aceofthesky1247]

Theory has been one of my fav for a long time, and they are still awesome

[@nicholasjackson8782]

Wow... His voice is good again!!!!

[@crazykiller001schannel5]

Not so sure... non of what he’s been doing on these recent albums comes close to matching what he was doing on the more rocking albums, he’s reduced to pop

[@nick421]

been listening to TOAD since 2001, classic acoustic gig

[@wesmoc]

Excellent acoustic and live version. Majorly impressive.

[@TheFluffyWendigo]

As a former alcoholic this speaks volume. Wasted 8 years of my life.

[@seannewberry6950]

Same here brother I'll be 10 months sober tomorrow I gave alcohol 12 years of my life

[@brandonsmith8653]

🙋🏻‍♂️

[@recklesgamer3163]

This guy definitely doesn't need auto tune

[@angelablack7946]

I just came across this song a few months ago and I am hooked on it. It is so good.

[@campfireacousticcovers]

Same

[@bradwilson5552]

Damn - straight into the lyrics from whistling... I couldn’t breathe enough:(

[@bigdaddyhall7196]

God does love you. Can't see that past your love for drugs. Yall keep ya heads up!

[@pritishbarbara7962]

Love this

[@stefanobandeira]

great song

[@tonylegg8683]

Holy sh@t! That was a great version! Thanks so much!

[@polux178]

the vocal is on point

[@ishaansharma681]

I love this song as it's so tru n relatable

[@skullivanfranklin4117]

Great Band Great Vocalist Tyler Great Song !!

[@michaeldiaz297]

Fiiirreee 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@zacharyhuskyshaneour]

Music like song

[@brianmahoney9388]

Raw talent. Sounds just as good live as they do mixed. TOAD got me through my divorce.

[@ripoff2.013]

omg

[@williamstokely9589]

I love when bands sound as good or better live than the album they put out. Guys almost got Layne Staley vibes where he sounds better live than recorded. It's a rare talent in bands now days.

[@NieveIsThicc]

Not even in the same league. Look up Love Hate Love by AIC live

[@williamstokely9589]

@@NieveIsThicc Layne Staley is my biggest Idol and the GREATEST vocalist of all time. This guy doesn't sound like Layne just saying he sounds good live. He has that "presence" and energy about his music

[@tonylegg8683]

Holy f%&k, me, this is a great rendition....

[@zacharyleonardowolfshaneour]

Like song music

[@polux178]

good live

[@lliontomos]

Full set anywhere

[@michaeldeselm345]

It's like a foreshadowing of COVID life. LOL

[@brandonhiggs88]

Better than orginal

[@billys4683]

But they coming to Ky.Sept.

[@juliedangerrr4090]

I’m impressed, I don’t think he opened his eyes once during the song, not even to play the keyboard.

[@pup9et]

haha 105.7 here in Upstate NY is a ghetto R$B station. We used to have a good metal station KGB-FM 92.5. Until they sold out to big corp. Now they play fkn classic rock. Every station that is connected with Iheart radio just plays the same shit over and over. So much so they play the turn a good song into a annoying mess.

[@Wowchick89]

Holy crap. 1 Tyler Connolly is hot...still 2 this song though

[@azucenanajera2295]

Tyler and Dean are both so gorgeous!

[@billys4683]

One of my favorite groups,But come on'The Guitarist was more into it than any of'm.

[@snakepliskin722]

He kinda looks like brian callen

[@PhantomTales]

Imagine being a millionaire and wearing a white shirt worth 15 bucks lol

[@milosmith8275]

Imagine being a millionaire and being empty inside and still searching for happiness.

[@hazingamy6846]

The bass player sings flat on his backing vocals every fucking time they do it...jesus h christ man.

[@patrykplawsko3344]

lil dicky earth

[@embramorgan6720]

Always liked this song and was happy to hear it acoustic, but the bassist echoing "medicate" made me cringe a bit.
