Happy Endings

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Hey, at least in my mind

I'm feeling like I'm the hero that saves me

There, I hold my head high

Get everything right

Delusional maybe

This whole last year was a shit show

Just finding out now what I didn't know

Seems like each time when I get low

I place blame everywhere that it shouldn't go

And that's what's keeping me up

Falling apart, man, I'll keep it a buck

You still act like I'm holding you up

I still feel like I'm totally nuts so

Tell me what I should've said and I'll pretend to know that

Things come out my mouth that I should probably learn to hold back

Why do I expect to have the patience that I don't have?

Over and over, expecting a different result, yeah

Hey, at least in my mind

I'm feeling like I'm the hero that saves me

There, I hold my head high

Get everything right

Delusional maybe

If I'm pretending, why not write happy endings

Where I'm better than we both know I could be, oh

Still, at least in my mind

I'm feeling like I'm the hero that saves me

They're like: Hey, mike

You can't keep kicking yourself for the things you say, like

There are some people that you could never make right

Really, do I wanna sweat shit, no

I don't know why I don't let this go

I Hold it inside let it take control

Tell me what I should've said and I'll pretend to know that

Things come out my mouth that I should probably learn to hold back

Why do I expect to have the patience that I don't have?

Over and over and over and over and, oh my God

Hey, at least in my mind

I'm feeling like I'm the hero that saves me

There, I hold my head high

Get everything right

Delusional maybe

If I'm pretending, why not write happy endings

Where I'm better than we both know I could be, oh

Still, at least in my mind

I'm feeling like I'm the hero that saves me

I keep telling myself to stop caring

‘Cause they live for keeping me staring

And they'll drag it on to make respond

To get more retweets and more sharing

I don't need the manager, no Karen

‘Cause what's wrong seems so apparent

‘Cause I'm too alive for bad fucking vibes

And I'm so damn sick of being stuck inside, 'side, 'side, 'side, yeah

Hey, at least in my mind

I'm feeling like I'm (like I'm) the hero that saves me (ah)

There, I hold my head high (yeah)

Get everything right (right)

Delusional maybe (maybe)

If I'm pretending, why not write happy endings

Where I'm better than we both know I could be, oh (know I could be, know I could be)

Still, at least in my mind (in my mind, yeah)

I'm feeling like I'm (like I'm) the hero that saves me (yeah, ah)

If I'm pretending, why not write happy endings

I-if I'm pretending, why not write happy endings

I-if I'm pretending, why not write happy endings

I-if I'm pretending, why not write happy endings
