Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Feeling high
Feelings like depression
Stay inside
Pay for my protection
Location, time
Frequency, reception
See how I rejected your affection
Yeah
[Chorus]
I never felt better
I thought I was in so much pain
Never felt better
I thought I was in such a bad place
Never felt better
I thought I was in so much pain
I never felt better
[Verse 2]
Thought I had my guard up as prevention
Got hit, so I guess that was invention
I'm laid out, seeing butterflies, ascension
I put my guard up back again, convention
[Chorus]
I never felt better
I never felt better
I never felt better
I never felt better
[Verse 3]
Crawling back inside my head
Close the curtains, back to bed
Disassociating in an airport
And switching screens
Trying to bring you close to me
[Chorus]
Never felt better
I thought I was in so much pain
I never felt better
I thought I was in such a bad place
I never felt better
I thought I was in so much pain
I never felt better
[Verse 4]
The artificial blues again
Falling in nostalgia loops
Oh what is this lonely feeling
That I dedicate my time to?
[Chorus]
I never felt better
I never felt better
I never felt better
[Outro]
Um, you're probably asleep, but I was just calling to say hi
Um, so I'll try and catch you another time
