ARTIFICIAL HAPPINESS Lyrics

I'm popping pills just to kill the pain

Been blowing smoke just to numb the ache

You know I love an escape

I just want to, I just wanna forget this pain

I just want to, I just wanna forget your face

Running out of gas

We're about to crash

I knew it couldn't last, oh

I just want to

I just wanna forget this pain

Been feeling low, can't get us off my mind

Every thought of you is stuck running in rewind

I'm trying to move on, but I can't seem to find

Anyone like you, maybe I'm just blind

The only way I can get through the day is to find a way to make the memories fade

So I take a hit and numb the pain as you slowly slip from my brain

Help me forget all the love that we had

All the pain and regret

Now take me away from all the loneliness, heartache, and the disarray

Just take me

Just take me away

Just take me

Just take me away

I'm drowning in sorrow and I can't seem to breathe with the weight of your absence still crushing me

I try to sleep, but it's only a dream when you appear just to dissolve right in front of me

Dissolve right in front of me

The only way I can get through the day is to find a way to make the memories fade

So I take a hit and numb the pain as you slowly slip from my brain

Help me forget all the love that we had

All the pain and regret

Now take me away from all the loneliness, heartache, and the disarray

Just take me

Just take me away

Just take me

Just take me away

I know it's not the answer, I know it's not right

But in this moments of weakness these drugs are my only light

I promise I'll get better, I'll find a way to cope

But for now, these drugs are the only hope so

Help me forget all the love that we had

All the pain and regret

Now take me away from all the loneliness, heartache, and the disarray

Just take me

Just take me away

Just take me

Just take me away

I know it's not forever, I know this is the end

When artificial happiness is your friend.
