The song "Medicine" by USS (Ubiquitous Synergy Seeker) is about the experience of feeling drained and disconnected from oneself, like a zombie. The lyrics depict a relationship where the narrator feels trapped and unable to walk away from someone who constantly lies and manipulates them. The phrase "I finally met your monster face to face" suggests that the other person's true, negative nature has been revealed. The chorus refers to getting a taste of one's own medicine, indicating that the narrator has now experienced the same hurt and deception that they had previously inflicted on the other person. They describe this experience as feeling like Thomas Edison, who invented the light bulb, but is now "lights out" or not functioning properly. The repeated line "Why do you always hide?" questions why the other person always hides their true self and behaves in such a destructive way. Overall, the song explores themes of imbalance, toxicity, and the consequences of one's actions.
