It gets better " they keep repeating over and over
Just change your frame of mind, and you'll be fine
"You know it could be worse" says the devil sat on my shoulder
If I don't lose my mind I'll be alright

But I wish that you understood
Some words do no good
And it's hard when you can't relate
'Cause you can't feel the weight

When you say every days a blessing
And you fail to see a reason why I'm stressing out
So can I let you know?

You say that everything is temporary
This just feels unnecessary in your eyes
And all you wanna know
Is why I can't be happier, happier

There's a wave of guilt and it hits when I'm thinking over
All the good I have that feels unearned
It's not that I'm ungrateful or that I want something better
All I really want is to be heard

And I wish that you understood
Some words do no good
And I hate that I'd rather lie
Than say what's on my mind

When you say every days a blessing
And you fail to see a reason why I'm stressing out
So can I let you know

You say that everything is temporary
This just feels unnecessary in your eyes
And all you wanna know
Is why I can't be happier, happier

Be happier
Happier, happier
Be happier
Happier, happier

Maybe I don't have the answer, but I wish I didn't have to try to
Justify the things I can't control
Like why I can't be
