Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's like the money in my palm
Soon as I spend it, want it
Soon as it's on, I'm off it
Soon as I get it, lost and
It's like the moment compared to staring at pictures of it
It picked you up then dropped you down
You blinked, you missed it
What you watched, is so amazing when it's there
When it ain't, it's so unfair
Went from square one to atmosphere
Then back to here and
I thought I had it on lock
Turns out you can't restrict it
Can't rush it, can't predict it
That's part and parcel with it
[Chorus]
Happiness, happiness is fine but it's momentary
A momentary lapse of reality
Reality is fine for the moment it can wait
I'm addicted to the chase of my happiness
Happiness is fine but it's momentary
A momentary lapse of reality
Reality is fine for the moment it can wait
I'm addicted to the chase of my happiness
[Verse 2]
We take that weekend by storm
Tick tour takes off tour posters
Start that long sleep to sober
Then just like that, it's over
We party like rockstars
Looking down on how kings would live and
Wake up to setting suns
Smoke stains on our fingertips, but
It's perfect in that moment, we own it, it's ours
No happy ever afters, just happy for right now
So fleeting, so profound
Thoughts full in my head
It's nights I won't remember with
Mates I'll never forget, that's my
[Chorus]
Happiness, happiness is fine but it's momentary
A momentary lapse of reality
Reality is fine for the moment it can wait
I'm addicted to the chase of my happiness
Happiness is fine but it's momentary
A momentary lapse of reality
Reality is fine for the moment it can wait
I'm addicted to the chase of my happiness
[Verse 3]
Full tilt, we hit them highs, man they come and go like seasons
I know when it's arrived, hardly catch it 'till it's leaving
Hold tight, for them up and downs
Hold tight, for them up and downs
Hold tight, for them up and downs
Hold tight, for them up and downs
Hold tight, hold on
Don't slow down
No no, that's my up and down
That's my up and down
That's my up and down
That's my up and down
[Verse 4]
Yeah, ain't no amount of words could still define our feeling
Reality and dreaming, toe that fine line between them
Soon as it got here, it's leaving
Don't know when it's coming 'round again but
Move forward push towards it
Means justify the end so
We scouring far and wide
Through love and fear and hurting
But after all that searching
Goddammit, it's worth it
Bang the head of the nail
We don't dream to scale, long as there is wind in my sails
I'ma stay hard on the trail, my
[Chorus]
Happiness, happiness is fine but it's momentary
A momentary lapse of reality
Reality is fine for the moment it can wait
I'm addicted to the chase of my happiness
Happiness is fine but it's momentary
A momentary lapse of reality
Reality is fine for the moment it can wait
I'm addicted to the chase of my happiness
