"Be Happy" lyrics - SLEEPING WITH SIRENS
[Intro: Kellin Quinn]
(I should be happy, but I'm not)
[Verse 1: Kellin Quinn]
I spent my whole life dreaming up
Some perfect world, but now I'm stuck
These words I sing for the ones I love
Draw a line that define the best in us
With every note and every page
I'm cleaning up each mess I make
Is there some way for me to prove that
I won't bring out the worst in you?
[Pre-Chorus: Kellin Quinn]
Can anyone else relate?
[Chorus: Kellin Quinn]
I should be happy, but I'm not
Is there a way to make it stop?
It won't go away
It keeps haunting me
As colors fade, I start to change
I only have myself to blame 'cause
I should be happy, but I'm not
Can anyone else relate?
[Verse 2: Royal & the Serpent, Kellin Quinn, Both]
I saw the light when I was young
I always knew that I would be someone
But I fall short and I fuck things up
And now I'm paying for all these things I've done
I can't escape the feeling
Now I'm staring at the ceiling while I waste away
Could be better off alone
Might be better on my own
But I know I'm not okay 'cause
[Chorus: Royal & the Serpent]
I should be happy, but I'm not
Is there a way to make it stop?
It won't go away
It keeps haunting me
As colors fade, I start to change
I only have myself to blame 'cause
I should be happy, but I'm not
Can anyone else relate?
[Post-Chorus: Kellin Quinn & Royal & the Serpent]
Can't escape the feeling
Now I'm staring at the ceiling while I waste away
Might be better off alone, I'd be better on my own
But no, I'm not okay
I'm not okay
[Bridge: Kellin Quinn]
As colors fade, I start to change
I only have myself to blame
As colors fade, I start to change
I only have myself to blame
[Pre-Chorus: Kellin Quinn & Royal & the Serpent]
I should be happy, but I'm not
Is there a way to make it stop?
(Just make it stop)
[Chorus: Kellin Quinn & Royal & the Serpent]
I should be happy, but I'm not
Is there a way to make it stop?
It won't go away, it keeps haunting me
As colors fade, I start to change
I only have myself to blame 'cause
I should be happy, but I'm not
I should be happy, but I'm not
[Outro: Kellin Quinn & Royal & the Serpent]
So kill the pain and make it stop
Can anyone else relate?
Can anyone else relate?
Can anyone else relate?
Just make it stop
