Maybe I Can't Be Happy Lyrics

Have I become what I was scared of?

Our childhoods did not prepare us

For the pain that awaits

All the rain and headaches

They never taught us how to be happy, now

Most nights I wake up shaking

How much more can I take in?

I was born with this brain

Don't think I can change

Does anybody feel the same?

I've come to terms that maybe

Maybe I can't be happy

All I want's clarity

And all they want's to take it from me

Where do I go now

Before I break down?

I could really use some help

But I'll refuse the handout

I've come to terms that maybe

Maybe I can't be happy

Yeah, maybe I can't be happy

Maybe everybody in the world is laughing

Yeah, but in my head, that has already happened

I'm lying in my bed just repeating my actions

Replaying everything they said to me

And I don't even disagree

Whenever someone says "I love you," I don't know what it means

Comparing me to all these fake people living in their screens

Staying silent, but inside, all I wanna do is scream

Feeling low and I don't know why

Some nights I feel like I wanna die

I say I'm fine, but it's all a lie

You can't see the pain in my eyes

Hide from life, that's how I get by

High at night, staring at the sky

Sometimes I can feel alright

'Til the panic sets in and I come to terms that I...

I've come to terms that maybe

Maybe I can't be happy

All I want's clarity

And all they want's to take it from me

Where do I go now

Before I break down?

I could really use some help

But I'll refuse the handout

I've come to terms that maybe

Maybe I can't be happy

I've reached the limit on my antidepressants

If this is a lesson, I never got the message

How am I supposed to feel happy when I can't feel anything?

I've come to terms that maybe I'll never be happy

And now I'm starting to think

Maybe the world's better off without me

I've come to terms that maybe

Maybe I can't be happy

All I want's clarity

And all they want's to take it from me

Where do I go now

Before I break down?

I could really use some help

But I'll refuse the handout

I've come to terms that maybe

Maybe I can't be happy
