How Heavily I Breathe

Reminisce those days well spent To subdue the argument that in your absence The worst always happens I'm sure I'll find my feet again But it's a long, hard walk without them Laid to waste by my mistakes Now I'm just accustomed to the way they all keep me awake I'll trade my nights for your days What's it like on the right side of dependency? What's it like to be free from the pain? Artificially happy Don't you want the real thing? Those pills won't make you better They'll just numb the ache I've seen this happen before When you got carried away You went to bed that night hoping you wouldn't wake up But I'm so glad that you did I'm so glad you did And it keeps me awake But I'll trade my nights for your days What's it like on the right side of dependency? What's it like to be free from the pain? Artificially happy Don't you want the real thing? I want the real thing
