Erik Soriano & The Sound

[Verse1]
Sometimes you wake up around midnight
You get up, and stare into the dark
who am I? why was I born? what is my purpose?
Intrusive thoughts, occupy the mind
You've made mistakes, the ghosts keep coming back to haunt you
you cry in silence, don't want to wake your wife

[Pre-Chorus]
One moment you feel alright, the next you spiral
angels and demons, a battle of the psych


[Chorus1]
You feel insane, You feel isolated
You don't want to live
so go ahead and take your pills

You feel better, you feel motivated
you're unstoppable
so you don't have to take those pills


[Verse2]
The next day, you go about your day as usual
they see you smile, they want to shake your hand
Good job, you've crafted the perfect persona
Who are you kidding? how long will this last?
You get home, the battle goes on in your head
Who will win? it's you against yourself

[Pre-Chorus]
It's too late, now look at yourself in the mirror
What you see, is a reflection of the words:

[Chorus2]
You feel insane, You feel isolated
You don't want to live
so go ahead and take your pills

You feel better, you feel motivated
you're unstoppable
so you don't have to take those pills
[Guitar Solo Plays]

[Bridge]
Don't shut your eyes so fast
Everyone deserves a second chance
Before it ends tonight
I want you to know, that I forgive you...

[guitar riff]
That I forgive you...oh

[LastChorus]
You feel insane, You feel isolated
You don't want to live
so go ahead and take your pills

You feel better, you feel motivated
you're unstoppable
so you don't have to take those pills.

[Chorus repeats as the song fades out with a guitar solo/riffs]
