Happy Face

Let's flow

Why are you feeling this way?
I wish that I could take away your pain
Why are you feeling this way?
I told you everything will be okay

Only time I see you smiles for the pictures that you pose in
Smiley face emojis in the caption when you post it
Hoping that your family and your friends will never notice
But I notice you've been putting on this act, come on, we both know it

Why do conversations have to turn so vicious?
Why does getting close to you is when you feel most distant
How come when I try and talk, you say I just don't listen?
But when I stop, now you're mad that I don't have an opinion, come on

I'm at a cross-roads
I'm tryna see it if from both ways like when you cross roads
You say you lost hope, fell inside that hole, and so I threw you a rope
You ain't grab it, so I took it, and I left you alone

I can't help, but feeling mad when you just push me away
I can't help, but feeling mad when you can't look me in the face
And you just disregard the things that I was tryna tell you
Hell, you'll never know what that just took me to say
I gave you every chance to try and make a change
But no matter what I do, it's just gon' stay the same
Maybe I'm the problem, should we take a break?
I still don't know what happened, that's why I keep on asking

Why are you feeling this way?
I wish that I could take away your pain
Why are you feeling this way?
I told you everything will be okay

Of course, I post pictures of me smiling and laughing
Happy face caption
Hoping if I portray the life that I wanted
Maybe one day, I'll wake up, and it actually happens
But for now, I guess it's back to the acting

You're the only person I could ever be myself around
I don't need you tryna be my savior, that ain't helping now
If I'm walking on the edge, please, don't try and help me down
Just stay close until I find myself a healthy ground

I don't need solutions, I need comfort
Pointing out the problems tryna solve it makes the cuts hurt
Sometimes life sucks, and sometimes love hurts
And telling me that everything's okay just makes it much worse

It should be okay to not be okay
'Cause dealing with these feelings really taught me some things
And I know you think it's not gonna change
But I'd rather you walk with me than be walking away

Why are you feeling this way?
I wish that I could take away your pain
Why are you feeling this way?
I told you everything will be okay
