roof Lyrics

I have got everything to be happy

But I keep boiling with envy

I keep complaining about everything

My body, the weather and all those little things

I will be studying at uni

I had the choice from my birth on

And I love maths, don't get me wrong

But it won't fulfill my heart's stupid ache for melodies

And they tell me"You've got a roof to sleep under

Why the hell can't you be fucking happy?

You've got food on your plate everyday"

But I've got so much more than food on this very plate

We've tried plenty of pills

Little happiness capsules changing my brain

But nothing ever works, it all seems vain

And I never get this joyful thrill

We all always assume"She's got a job and a boyfriend

She is obviously happy and content"

But you don't know her, maybe her world, it never blooms

Sadness is a matter of brain chemistry

It's like the shape of your body

It's not because you suffered more than me

That I have to be happy

And they tell me"You've got a roof to sleep under

Why the hell can't you be fucking happy?

You've got food on your plate everyday

But I've got so much more than food on this very plate"

They tell me

I should be happy

Come on, it's easy
