I wish I could say I had a lot to to do with this song ... but I didn't. I contributed to the chorus. The rest of the song is classic "Ian".

Wake up, medicate, again
Ever after is a friend
But you and I we get so high
We never quite came down
Ever after again
What could be more beautiful than you and I
Falling from grace
All the things we'll never know
So beautiful they're slipping away
Light my past on fire
Spell it right in black and white
A coward's here for hire
What could be more beautiful than you and I
Falling from grace
All the things we'll never know
So beautiful they're slipping away
It's beautiful (slipping away)
It's time to pack up and vacate
I'm so fed up of closing up
And running from myself
What could be more beautiful than you and I
Falling from grace
All the things we'll never know
so beautiful they're slipping away
Wake up, medicate, again
'Cause ever after is my friend
