i promise i'm happy ! Lyrics

I promise I'm happy

Just don't like to be sappy

That's why I write

In truth and in spite

When I write about my good days

That feeling slips away

I feel like a fake

I feel so cliche

What's easier

Faking what I'm feeling

Or telling the truth

I'm so eager

To become self healing

Blame it on my youth

(Just like you always do)

The only things that resonate

Are what I'll communicate

Only my sadness

Only my vastness

On the surface I look depressed

I'll tell that story best

But i've never been better

I'm wearing my favorite sweater

I say this because

You're probably worried

But I promise I'm fine!

I'm not gonna write

Something I might

Never have liked

Writings my therapy

So blame it on me

For being a teen

(It's just cause I'm a teen)

I'll sing with clarity

But you'll disagree

You'll say it's my screen

(It's not my screen, I'm gonna scream)

I promise I'm happy

I just don't like to be sappy

That's why I write

In truth and in spite
