The Julian Wells Effect
Cigarettes out my window
It's a Wednesday night
Found something that makes me happy
But it's fucked up my life
Lost my friends guess they're happy
While I'm wasting nights
Feel my body spinning around
I'm scared of fright
Search my room for something better
All I find are highs
Make me see and make me believe
That I'll be alright
Forget my life took too many
Can't remember times
Broke my bonds with my parents
Now I'm only happy when I'm high
Now I'm only happy when I'm high
Now I'm only happy when I'm high
We're just mortal engines waiting for the day where we choose to burn out
This is not a game for some and I'm treating it like there's no way out
Kiss my mum and tell my dad I'm sorry thanks for everything we've had
My heart rate's falling it's the hero soon it will be Less Than Zero
All began as a one off
Now that's all they see
Everyone I've looked up to
Does the same as me
What they forgot to show you
Is reality
But I hope that one day
Happiness will find me
I'm not good at artistry
Got nowhere to go
If there's an art in losing yourself
I'm Vincent van Gogh
Haven't read your messages yet
I already know
How was I happy sober
Now I'm only happy when I'm high
Now I'm only happy when I'm high
Now I'm only happy when I'm high
We're just mortal engines waiting for the day where we choose to burn out
This is not a game for some and I'm treating it like there's no way out
Kiss my mum and tell my dad I'm sorry thanks for everything we've had
My heart rate's falling it's the hero soon it will be Less Than Zero
We're just mortal engines waiting for the day where we choose to burn out
This is not a game for some and I'm treating it like there's no way out
Kiss my mum and tell my dad I'm sorry thanks for everything we've had
My heart rate's falling it's the hero soon it will be Less Than Zero
Now I'm only happy when I'm high
It's a Wednesday night
Found something that makes me happy
But it's fucked up my life
Lost my friends guess they're happy
While I'm wasting nights
Feel my body spinning around
I'm scared of fright
Search my room for something better
All I find are highs
Make me see and make me believe
That I'll be alright
Forget my life took too many
Can't remember times
Broke my bonds with my parents
Now I'm only happy when I'm high
Now I'm only happy when I'm high
Now I'm only happy when I'm high
We're just mortal engines waiting for the day where we choose to burn out
This is not a game for some and I'm treating it like there's no way out
Kiss my mum and tell my dad I'm sorry thanks for everything we've had
My heart rate's falling it's the hero soon it will be Less Than Zero
All began as a one off

Now I'm only happy when I'm high
Now I'm only happy when I'm high
We're just mortal engines waiting for the day where we choose to burn out
This is not a game for some and I'm treating it like there's no way out
Kiss my mum and tell my dad I'm sorry thanks for everything we've had

We're just mortal engines waiting for the day where we choose to burn out
This is not a game for some and I'm treating it like there's no way out
Kiss my mum and tell my dad I'm sorry thanks for everything we've had
My heart rate's falling it's the hero soon it will be Less Than Zero
Now I'm only happy when I'm high
