Another day, another song stuck in my brain

I been sick. So when I was young it seemed that whenever I got sick stupid persistent thoughts got in my head and stayed there until I got better. Now it's a little different. Now whenever I'm sick I remember being hung over and I get this knee-jerk response of feeling guilty. That was how hangovers used to go for me, beating up on myself for the duration of the hangover followed by a lot of drinking to quiet the voices.
