lyrics

this song is about how it sucks when people try to tell you that you should be happy you don't "have it worse". it's also about thoughts i was having at the time about my gender, dropping out of school, and anxiety and stress in the form of trichotillomania.

F G Am E F G

i always wanted to be tougher than i am
but i’m small and i’m scared
i’ve always wanted to know just where i stand
but i stand everywhere

if you’re not happy
you should be

maybe i’ll drop out of high school
and maybe i won’t go to college
i’ve been wanting to drop right out this life
so, maybe i won't go to college

my eyelids stick together
the lashes hold them closed
so i pull them out, i swear it’s better
to make your own damn roads

if you’re not happy
you should be
yeah, if you’re not happy
you fucking should be

well, from down here i can see the sky
from down here i can see the sky
