The patient stood there waiting
But the doctor never came
He was looking for salvation
From the voices in his brain
The Medication wasn’t working,
It was all they ever tried
Every time his mouth was open
They were shoving pills inside
Nobody ever bothered listening,
No one even knew his name
How could they make him better
When they didn’t know his pain
The patient stood there waiting
But the doctor never came
He was busy giving speeches
On the topics of the day
He had lines he had to follow,
He had words he had to say
There were powerful men watching,
There was billions to be made
Medicine means money,
No profits in a cure
So keep us all dependent,
Keep us always needing more
The patient stood there waiting
But the doctors never came
They were busy twisting science
For the ruling class’s gain
They’d forsaken oaths they’d taken,
Once they swore to do no harm
Turning on each other,
If they dare to raise alarm
Proudly pushing poison,
They didn’t think about it twice
They turned the population
Into laboratory mice
The patient stood there waiting
But the doctor never came
He was looking for salvation
From the ever present pain
