Altered State

So far things have been alright

No complaints, oh this is the good life

But sometimes I need more

Just to get up and out the door

I like to live in an altered state

It makes me love all the things I hate

And I'm happy to be alive

Don't want to come off too straight

I like to put on my happy face

While I cry on the inside

Is it so hard to be happy

That I struggle to feel just ok

And I need a lift just to get through

Just to get up to normal with you

I like to live in an altered state

It makes me love all the things I hate

And I'm happy to be alive

Don't want to come off too straight laced

I like to put on my happy face

While I cry on the inside

Yeah sometimes I need more

Just to get up off the floor

I like to live in an altered state

It makes me love the things I hate

And I'm happy to be alive

Don't want to come off too straight laced

I like to put on my happy face

While I cry on the inside
