Happy for You Lyrics

I don't know how to be happy for you

I don't wanna lie through my teeth

But every time that you open a door

It feels like I'm caught underneath

It became so simple to justify

Criticizing each move that you make

I put up these walls around me

Waiting to blame you if they should break

And if I'm being honest, I've been a little caught up in this contest

I let you pin me down before I entered the ring

And I stood no chance when I waved my white flag before you came at me

I don't know why I'm so angry at you

Guess I let you under my skin

What if I ignored it? Oh, I wish I could ignore it, but I can't let you in

Cause there's a part of me that seems to need to thrive on this

It's something I'm not very proud of

But if I'm not competing, I'll be stuck with my feelings and I can't handle that

And if I'm being honest, I've been a little caught up in this conquest

Walking for miles in the wrong pair of shoes

What good does it do to call your friend

If all we can do is pretend

I don't know how to be happy

How to be happy

How to be happy

How to be happy

For you

For you
