Elixer

These days I feel like a dark cloud
Hovering over cities
Making the sky turn grey
When my feelings are unbound
Sometimes I just let it rain

But when I let it pour down oh yeah I know what they say
Telling me pretty lies like you'll be fine yeah you'll be okay
You overreact
It's not that bad
Damn just get over it
So I go on
Mask on
They say

Take the elixir
They swear this will fix it
Oh what a lie
Isn't it twisted
I would take the mixture
If it had existed
It isn't so easy
To not feel so distant
They say just be happy
Why can't you be happy
Put on a smile and just get over yourself
Take the elixir
I swear this will fix it
Oh what a lie

You think a smile is gonna make me better
But if it's fake then isn't that just a waste of energy?
Yeah
They say my feelings don't matter
Wear a fake face
No one likes the sad me

But when I pull it down oh yeah I know what they say
Telling me pretty lies like you'll be fine yeah you'll be okay
You overreact
It's not that bad
Damn just get over it
So I go on
Mask on
They say

Take the elixir
They swear this will fix it
Oh what a lie
Isn't it twisted
I would take the mixture
If it had existed
It isn't so easy
To not feel so distant
They say just be happy
Why can't you be happy
Put on a smile and just get over yourself
Take the elixir
They swear this will fix it
But that's a lie
No

But when I show myself oh yeah I know what they say
Telling me pretty lies like you'll be fine yeah you'll be okay
You overreact
It's not that bad
Damn just get over it
But I go on
No Mask on
I say

So please stop and listen
Let's be realistic
It's just a big lie
Oh ain't it twisted
Know you're all addicted
To fake happy systems
I wish it was easy
And that it went quicker
One day I'll be happy
I know I'll be happy
Put on a real smile and I'll get over myself
Won't take the elixir
I know I can fix it
But I just need time
I don't wanna hide
One day I'll be fine
