Lyrics
Haunting symphony
Verse 1
Melancholy woman
All I ever wanted was to feel a sense of belonging... a way to stop my sadness from prolonging...
Anxious man
I can't breathe...! I need oxygen... I can't breathe! I can't breathe! I need oxygen! [Gasping for air]
Haunting sound
Bridge
Spoken man
I'm not angry... I'm not mad... I'm not good... but I'm not bad...
Painful woman
What am I trying to see...? And what does it mean to be me...?
Heavy tempo shift
Chorus
Passionate man
She mixes chemicals to make an elixir! She drinks it down with the hope that it'll fix her!
She's chasing that high, a little taste of euphoria! Because she's tired of living in a state of dysphoria!
Verse 2
Melancholy woman
All I ever hoped for was to find myself a safe space... somewhere that I could feel less out of place...
Anxious man
I can't breathe...! I need oxygen... I can't breathe! I can't breathe! I need oxygen! [Gasping for air]
Bridge
Spoken man
I'm not angry... I'm not mad... I'm not good... but I'm not bad...
Emotional woman
What am I trying to see...?
Emotional man
And what does it mean to be me...?
Heavy tempo shift
Chorus
Passionate man
She mixes chemicals to make an elixir! She drinks it down with the hope that it'll fix her!
She's chasing that high, a little taste of euphoria! Because she's tired of living in a state of dysphoria!
Tempo shift
Aggressive man
So tired! She's wired! So wired! She's tired...! She's Ta-ta-ta tired!
So tired! I'm tired! So tired! I'm ta-ta-ta tired!
Slow tempo shift
Anxious man
I can't breathe... I need oxygen... I can't breathe... I can't breathe... I need oxygen...! [Gasping for air]
Bridge
Melancholy woman
I'm na-not angry... I'm not mad... I'm not good... but I'm not bad...
What am I trying to see...? And what does it mean to be me...?
Slow tempo shift
Chorus
Melancholy woman
She mixes chemicals to make an elixir... she drinks it down with the hope that it'll fix her...
she's chasing that high, a little taste of euphoria... because she's tired of living in a state of dysphoria...
