Happy Pills Lyrics

Trying to pick up the pace
Trying to make it so I never see your face again
Time to throw this away
Want to make sure that you never waste my time again

How does it feel?
Oh, how does it feel
To be you right now, dear?
You brought this upon
So pick up your piece and go away from here

Please just let me go now
Please just let me go
Would you please just let me go now?
Please just let me go

I'm going to get you out
I'm going to get you out
I'm going to get you out of my head
Get out

Gotta get you out
I've gotta get you out
I've gotta get you out of my head
Get out

Never said we'd be friends
Trying to keep myself away from you
'Cause you're bad, bad news

With you gone I'm alive
Makes me feel like I took happy pills
And time stands still

How does it feel?
Oh, how does it feel to be the one shut out?
You broke all the rules
I won't be a fool for you no more my dear

Please just let me go now
Please just let me go
Would you please just let me go now?
Please just let me go

I'm going to get you out
I'm going to get you out (please just let me go now)
I'm going to get you out of my head (please just let me go)
Get out

I've gotta get you out
I've gotta get you out
I've gotta get you out of my head
Get out
