Amitriptyline Lyrics

so long, goodbye
by order of the Pasadena court
so long, goodbye
500 milligrams are needed everyday,
held down by a pharmaceutical hand,
are needed everyday, so we can regulate
my uncontrollable urge

remember me as I was,
too much life, and oh too much love
last week my lastly stunning stunt,
top tier, my jumping chandelier

that’s why I’m here…
amitriptyline

I was a quiet, lunchbox lonely little boy
reading sci-fi, broken treehouse on the shore
at nineteen the talking in my head got harder to understand,
no work, no school, drifting, a failing satellite
don’t feel sorry for me I’ve been happy too
manic, kindly, blinding, high-res euphoria

remember me as I was,
the clowning judge, the crowning dove,
sad king alone in the western wing
holding foe’s laughing, severed head

that’s why I’m here…
amitriptyline

One of my most favorite songs ever. The version I have starts with someone saying "This is a new song, it's called Amitriptyline... It's our narrator's goodbye to the world 'cause he's about to go on antidepressants... by court order." That made me laugh, but it's actually a very serious song. I wish I knew what the sad king with the laughing foe's head meant.

Amitriptyline is not prescribe anymore on this dose "500 mg" because there are too many bad effects. I am on ami too and when I heard that song for the first time I tought my doctor did not tell me I was creazy; I am also on methadon. But because I have only 50mg/day, that help me to stop my migrains. If I forget it one time, I've got a migrain the day after. It is really strong. And as the methadon, it gives you the eternal need to eat sugar.
