lyrics

"Oi, play it in the background otherwise I can't get into it"

Verse 1
You have become a hostage to a habit you cant feed
Maybe it's made you realise how much you relied on me
The stranger in the looking glass just tried to catch your eye
The face in your reflection isn't one you recognise

Verse 2
You think you're getting over it by putting yourself under
Of course it all feels better in a psychedelic slumber
The alarm bells are ringing, the morning birds are singing
And you're still clinging to the fact you know my number

Verse 3
Let me guess it's all my fault, I know the details
You're coming off of these rails...
And who's the shady looking female
Now what does she sell?
Judging by the weed scales it ain't sea shells
You funding this addiction only working in retail?
Now listen, I only know what I witness
I know it's none of my business
And we probably shouldn't get into this
Gotta be damn bad, you're giving up on inconspicuous
How low you wanna go ya know, how deep you wanna sink in this?

Pre/Chorus
Taking medicine every day
Not to make you feel better
Pushing chemicals through your veins
Pull yourself together
You're not looking for a solution
Just something to take your mind of us
Can't replace love
With a Substance
