Troye Sivan - Happy Little Pill Meaning
Song Released: 2014
Happy Little Pill Lyrics
And every second passing reminds me I’m not whole
Bright lights and city sounds are ringing like a drone
Unknown, unknown
Oh, glazed eyes, empty hearts
Buying happy from shopping carts
Nothing but time to kill
Sipping...

I have two interpretations of this song.
1. Him and someone close to him were going through a hard time and that someone was pretty depressed. Obviously no one knows exactly who that someone is and what actually went on in that period of time. But troye says the song is still special to him from the day wrote it.
2. He's trying to showcase that the whole world mostly relies on spending money on things that won't make you happy it'll just make you greedy and doing drugs and smoking all sorts of stuff just to stay happy in a very sad world, "nothing but time to kill" - too bored so they want to splurge all there money on unesscessary things that won't help at all.
Moral of the story: find something that makes you really happy and I mean really happy, like a hobby or something. Don't rely on drugs, sadly most teenagers do. -
He is trying to put across the point that you are either happy or you aren't. And buying things isn't going to make you any happier. That it isn't living, you're just existing. You need to find ways in life to have fun and enjoy life. Don't expect it to come from a pill.
