Happiness
✓ Three Days Grace Lyrics

I reach out when I have a confession
When I have something important to say, I try to talk to someone about it.

I reach out in desperation
When I'm feeling hopeless, I try to reach out to someone for help.

I reach out when no one is listening
Sometimes I feel like no one is paying attention to me, so I try to talk to someone anyway.

So I could looking for the next best thing
I'm always searching for something better, even if it means leaving behind what I have now.

Happiness straight from the bottle
I turn to alcohol to make me feel happy.

When real life’s too hard to swallow
When things get tough, I use alcohol as a coping mechanism.

I feel them judging on me for their own pleasure
I feel like other people are criticizing me just to make themselves feel better.

If they really knew they’d know better
If they knew the whole story of what I'm going through, they would understand my choices better.

That I’m the one who caves under pressure
I have a hard time handling stress and often make impulsive decisions.

When desperate times call for desperate measures
When things get really bad, I'll do whatever it takes to get through it, even if it's not the best choice.

I know there’s got to be some peace in me
I believe that there is a calm and content side to me that I can't seem to access.

But I can’t find it
I'm struggling to find that inner peace I know is there.

I get so sick of looking
It's tiring and frustrating to constantly search for something that seems out of reach.

To hard to swallow
Real life can be too overwhelming and difficult to deal with, which is why I turn to alcohol for relief.
