Lyrics
[verse]
Woke up sideways in a stranger's yard
Traded my sanity for a paper card
Bought a house I never even wanted
Filled my closet up with things I flaunted
[chorus]
If it makes you happy, why's it feel so wrong
If it makes you happy, why you singing sad songs
I've got everything they said I need
Then why's there still this hole in me
[verse]
Cut my hair off in the bathroom sink
Told my friends I'm fine, but didn't blink
Chasing something shiny, something new
Still ain't found a thing that's really true
[chorus]
If it makes you happy, why's it feel so wrong
If it makes you happy, why you singing sad songs
I've got everything they said I need
Then why's there still this hole in me
[bridge]
Maybe happy's just a word they sell
Maybe I've been living in a shell
Gonna strip it down and start again
Find out what was real back then
[chorus]
If it makes you happy, why's it feel so wrong
If it makes you happy, why you singing sad songs
I've got everything they said I need
Then why's there still this hole in me
