Happy for You Lyrics

Caught you off guard at a bar on the lower east side

It's funny my memory of you looks stale in the light

Ask how you are I'll admit I'm just trying to be nice

But the more that you talk the more I'm losing my mind

Oh, you have a baby? Oh, you're getting married? Well isn't that good for you

Tell me do you still have bad dreams about us? Cuz baby I do

So I won't say I'm happy for you

Even though it's what I should do

Cuz I can't bear the thought of you getting off

With all that you put me through

So I won't say I'm happy for you

Back then I'd sit like the queen of the castle

Letting you refill my glass

Paraded around the city in the darkness

But you never held my hand back

Now you think this is cute? No, don't show me a picture

I'll swallow this secret with wine: I only showed up cuz I knew that you'd be here

To put you to bed in my mind

So I won't say I'm happy for you

Even though it's what I should do

Cuz I can't bear the thought of you getting off

With all you put me through

Happy for you

Like I bet you want me to do

And let you get off on the hurt that you've caused

Wouldn't that be nice for you

So I won't say I'm happy

If this were a play then I'd walk off the stage

Cuz I won't pretend that I like you

The pain you created has held my cells captive

Surprise, it's not about you

It's not something you can undo

Now I can't bear the thought of you getting off with all you put me through

Happy for you

Even though it's what I should what I should

I can't bear the thought of you getting off with all you put me through

So I won't say I'm happy for you
