Lyrics
I'm going out so I'm not in my head
I'm going out to avoid overthinking.
Can't be alone, I got a million friends
I can't stand being alone, surrounded by many friends.
Breathing the smoke up in a crowded room
Inhaling smoke in a crowded room, possibly at a party or social gathering.
Everyone smiling like it's crystal clear
People around are happy, but the singer is unsure about their purpose there.
Can't figure out exactly why I'm here
The singer is uncertain about their presence in the situation.
Feeling the high but I'll be low real soon
Experiencing a temporary high but anticipating a subsequent low.
I'm not okay but I'm okay
Expressing internal conflict - not feeling okay but projecting as if everything is fine.
Losing my mind but I'm alright
Acknowledging a mental struggle but outwardly appearing okay.
As long as I always keep chasing that dopamine
The pursuit of pleasure and excitement (dopamine) is prioritized despite internal struggles.
Hope the champagne will wash the pain away
Hoping that celebratory actions like drinking champagne will alleviate emotional pain.
When I wake up I'll need a new escape
Desiring a new escape when waking up, possibly from the realities or challenges of life.
Say it's the last time like I always do
Repeating patterns of behavior and expecting change, knowing it may not happen.
Pick up the phone to make a random call
Using a random call as a distraction from silence and inner thoughts.
Can't stand the silence so I guess I'll talk
Communication as a way to avoid dealing with personal issues.
All of my friends they got the same issues
Observing that friends share similar struggles and challenges.
Every night, distraction like a chemical reaction
Engaging in distractions (chemical reactions) every night to avoid facing reality.
We can't help ourselves
Admitting difficulty in resisting self-destructive behaviors.
I'm not okay but I'm okay
Reiterating internal conflict - not feeling okay but projecting as if everything is fine.
Losing my mind but I'm alright
Acknowledging a mental struggle but outwardly appearing okay.
As long as I always keep chasing that dopamine
The pursuit of pleasure and excitement (dopamine) is prioritized despite internal struggles.
I'm not a mess but I'm a mess
Recognizing personal challenges but maintaining a facade of composure.
Losing my mind but I'm alright
Acknowledging a mental struggle but outwardly appearing okay.
As long as I always keep chasing that dopamine
The pursuit of pleasure and excitement (dopamine) is prioritized despite internal struggles.
Chasing that dopamine
Continuously seeking pleasure and excitement, specifically dopamine.
