Possessing Me Lyrics
Found a cure that doesn't kill
From lobotomys to a pill
Heal the mad and steal their pain
What's the industry got to gain?
If you could let me go
Or you could set me free
Then I would let you know
Of what's possessing me
And I would help you out
And I would show you the way
And you could scream and shout
Cos it would end today
Yeah
Yeah
Suicidal thoughts subside
Permanent damage to the mind
Excuse if the one we paid
"We are gonna die anyway"
Nihilistic human minds
Breaching to the end of time
Convinced that we are insane
Curable by the damaged brain.
From lobotomys to a pill
Heal the mad and steal their pain
What's the industry got to gain?
Or you could set me free
Then I would let you know
Of what's possessing me
And I would help you out
And I would show you the way
And you could scream and shout
Cos it would end today
Yeah
Permanent damage to the mind
Excuse if the one we paid
"We are gonna die anyway"
Breaching to the end of time
Convinced that we are insane
Curable by the damaged brain.

In the Blind booklet, it says: "This CD is dedicated to all the mentally ill people in the world... Hang on, there is still hope." Fox is a licensed Nurse, and EMT amidst other things. I think he wrote this song to further the dedication in the previous CD.

Once you're cured, your cured. you don't need to see a doctor anymore, so he looses a patient, and therefore money too.

Not something you say to a depressed person to convince them to take Prozac.

Self explanatory.
This one is pretty obvious
