sweet pills

V6-MINI

[Verse 1 — Intimate Melodic Vocals] The morning comes in shades of grey I lose another day away A little peace, a little pause A pretty name for what it costs I wear a smile to hide the ache Pretend there's nothing left to break But when the lights begin to fade I'm back inside the mess I made [Chorus — Huge Melodic Vocals, Full Band] Sweet pills, sweet lies Paint the darkness in softer light Make me feel like I'm alright Just long enough to last the night Sweet pills, take me away Give me a dream I can escape I taste the calm, I feel alive Then wake up empty every time [Refrain — Soft Female Vocals] Just one more night Just one more lie Tell me I'll be fine If I close my eyes [Verse 2 — Driving Guitars, Emotional Vocals] I learned to live on borrowed time And keep the cracks outside the lines The room goes still, the walls turn blue But every quiet leads to you I keep on reaching for the same A little comfort, less of the pain But every time I numb the sound The things I buried come around [Chorus — Heavier Guitars, Layered Vocals] Sweet pills, sweet lies Paint the darkness in softer light Make me feel like I'm alright Just long enough to last the night Sweet pills, take me away Give me a dream I can escape I taste the calm, I feel alive Then wake up empty every time [Bridge — Stripped Back, Vulnerable Vocals] I don't blame the hands that try To keep me breathing through the night But I can't spend my life in haze And let the years just slip away I want to feel the hurt again Not hide from everything within If healing means I have to fight Then let me face it this time [Breakdown — Aggressive Female Screams] I DON'T WANNA DISAPPEAR! I JUST WANT THE NOISE TO CLEAR! I'M NOT A GHOST! I'M STILL RIGHT HERE! I WON'T SPEND MY WHOLE LIFE RUNNING FROM MY FEAR! [Final Chorus — Massive Full Band, Powerful Vocals] Sweet pills, sweet lies I don't need another disguise I won't keep fading out of sight I wanna feel what's left inside Sweet pills, let me go I need to find my way back home I might still hurt, I might still cry But I don't wanna lose my life [Refrain — Soft Female Vocals] Just one more night Just one more lie Tell me I'll be fine If I close my eyes
