[Intro][Whispered][drip chamber]
One more pill...
One more night...
Tell me I'm okay.
Tell me I'm alive.

What a beautiful lie.

[Verse 1]
Chemical sunrise,
White ghosts under my eyes.
Hands are shaking,
But I call it art.

Doctor said, “Take it easy.”
I laughed and looked away.
The thing that saves me
Is the thing I can't escape.

[Pre-Chorus]
“I can stop whenever I want.”
Yeah, I said that yesterday.
Yesterday became tomorrow,
And tomorrow slipped away.

[Chorus]
DRUG ADDICTION
You're my lover, you're my curse.
You make the pain go quiet,
Then you make the silence worse.

DRUG ADDICTION
Pull me closer, let me drown.
Put a smile across my face
While you slowly drag me down.

Oh-oh, I'm losing my mind.
Oh-oh, but I call it fine.

DRUG ADDICTION.
Don't leave me alone with my mind.

[Verse 2]
Dancing with shadows,
Talking to the mirror.
“Baby, you're so pretty.”
“Baby, you're so scared.”

Friends say, “You changed.”
I say, “I'm just tired.”
They don't see the little war
Behind my eyes.

[Pre-Chorus]
“This is the last one.”
I've said it seventeen times.
Maybe I'm not chasing happiness—
Maybe I'm running from mine.

[Chorus][Depressed]
DRUG ADDICTION
You're my lover, you're my curse.
You make the pain go quiet,
Then you make the silence worse.

DRUG ADDICTION
I don't wanna love you anymore.
But every time I try to leave,
I crawl back to your door.

Oh-oh, I'm losing my mind.
Oh-oh, I'm running out of time.

I thought you were saving me—
You taught me how to disappear.

[Bridge][Unstable]
STOP—

No, wait.

Don't take it away.

I need it.
I hate it.
I need it.
I hate it.

I'M FINE!

...I'm fine.

Why am I crying?
Why am I laughing?
Why can't I remember
What I wanted to forget?

[Breakdown]
One pill.
Two pills.
Three little lies.

“I'm okay.”
“I'm okay.”
“I'm okay.”

Say it again.
Say it louder.

Maybe I'll believe it.

[Chorus]
DRUG ADDICTION
You're the monster in my bed.
You kiss me when I'm lonely,
Then you crawl inside my head.

DRUG ADDICTION
I don't wanna love you anymore.
But every time I try to leave,
I crawl back to your door.

Oh-oh, I'm losing my mind.
Oh-oh, I'm running out of time.

You were never my salvation.

You were just
my favorite
way
to disappear.

[Outro][Whisper]
One more pill...
One more night...

Maybe tomorrow
I'll choose life.

Maybe tomorrow...

I'll finally wake up.
