Increase the Dosage
(The Dose Isn't Strong Enough)Ever fix a problem only to have it return like a villain in a horror movie? Sometimes the remedy is too weak. Increase the dosage — give the issue more time, more expertise, or a stronger gate.
// LYRICS
[Verse 1] We had one meeting We made one note We sent one email With a subject line Please be more careful For the seventeenth time Then the same old problem Came back through the door Wearing dark sunglasses Like we had never met before [Chorus] The dose is not strong enough If the fever does not break The dose is not strong enough If we keep making the same mistake Do not whisper at the problem Do not tap it with a glove If it keeps coming back The dose is not strong enough [Verse 2] Maybe it needs a checklist Maybe it needs a gate Maybe it needs the expert For two focused days Not eight quick drive-bys In a calendar maze Maybe stop the line now Maybe change the rule Maybe try harder next time Was never a working tool [Bridge] A weak fix is permission For the failure to return If the system keeps repeating There is still something there to learn [Final Chorus] The dose is not strong enough Make the treatment fit the pain Do not call it solved While it is circling back again
