Laughing Gas
Chasing Happiness: The Laughing Gas Anthem by Television Skies
Lyrics
They told me I’m to be alone again
Feeling isolated and alone
So they ask if I have any questions
Being asked if there are any questions about the situation
It’s my favorite time of day again
Expressing enjoyment of a particular time of day
I’m stuck with a new aggression
Dealing with a new sense of aggression
Put me back on the table now
Metaphorically placed on a table, possibly feeling exposed or vulnerable
There’s no room for self expression
Feeling restricted in self-expression
It’s gonna help but the side effects will
Aware of the helpful aspect of a situation, but acknowledging potential side effects
Last I am your new obsession
Being someone's new obsession
And every day when I wake up in the morning
Reflecting on waking up each day
I see myself in the hourglass
Seeing oneself in the hourglass, possibly symbolizing time passing
And every day when I wake up in the morning
Repetition of the morning reflection
I wanna hit my laughing gas
Expressing a desire for "laughing gas" as a coping mechanism
I just wanna hit, I just wanna hit my
Repetition of the desire for "laughing gas"
I just want a hit, I just want a hit
-I just wanna hit, I just wanna hit my
-I want my laughing gas
-I just wanna hit, I just wanna hit my
Continued expression of the need for "laughing gas"
I just want a hit, I just want a hit
-I just wanna hit, I just wanna hit my
-I need my laughing gas
-So I try to force a smile out
Attempting to appear happy despite inner sadness
Inside I feel like crying
Feeling the contradiction between external and internal emotions
They’ve looked into my soul
Others examining the speaker's soul and finding something disturbing
What they’ve seen is horrifying
Describing the revealed soul as horrifying
So take this and swallow it down
Encouraging someone to accept a substance, possibly as a form of escape or denial
You’ve got to stop denying
-You’re so happy and you know you are
Contrasting happiness with the possibility of a serious situation
And thank god, you could be dying
-And every day when I wake up in the morning
Repetition of the morning reflection and the desire for "laughing gas"
I see myself in the hourglass
-And every day when I wake up in the morning
-I wanna hit my laughing gas
-I just wanna hit, I just wanna hit my
-I just want a hit, I just want a hit
-I just wanna hit, I just wanna hit my
-I want my laughing gas
-I just wanna hit, I just wanna hit my
-I just want a hit, I just want a hit
-I just wanna hit, I just wanna hit my
-I need my laughing gas
-I know the sound
Expressing happiness and being on the ground, possibly after taking "laughing gas"
Cause I’m happy now
-And I’m on the ground
-Cause I’m happy now
-I know the sound
-Cause I’m happy now
-And I’m on the ground
-I just wanna hit, I just wanna hit my
Final repetition of the desire for "laughing gas"
I just want a hit, I just want a hit
-I just wanna hit, I just wanna hit my
-I want my laughing gas
-I just wanna hit, I just wanna hit my
-I just want a hit, I just want a hit
-I just wanna hit, I just wanna hit my
-I need my laughing gas
