Sadness is a Shade of Blue

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Happiness is like the shade
In the desert
Sadness is a shade of blue
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
And the future is a street lamp in a town not built yet
And the past is you

I know you understand the darkness like me
And it's a heavy weight for only two feet
But you don't help yourself get better
And I can't change this ever-changing weather

Happiness is like the branch
Of an olive tree
Sadness is an avalanche
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
You know that winter never seemed to end
(You know that winter never seemed to end)
Tell me why nothing I did was good enough
Baby, why you living like this?
So sad, so sad

I know you understand the darkness like me
And it's a heavy weight for only two feet
But you don't help yourself get better
And I can't change this ever-changing weather

I know you understand the darkness like me
And it's a heavy weight for only two feet
But you don't help yourself get better
And I can't change this ever-changing weather

I know you understand the darkness like me
(Tell me why nothing I did was good enough)
And it's a heavy weight for only two
Feet (Baby, why you living like this?)
But you don't help yourself get better (so sad)
And I can't change this ever-changing weather (so sad)

I know you understand the darkness like me
(Tell me why nothing I did was good enough)
And it's a heavy weight for only two
Feet (Baby, why you living like this?)
But you don't help yourself get better (so sad)
And I can't change this ever-changing weather (so sad)

(Tell me why nothing I did was good enough)
Tell me why nothing I did was good enough
Baby, why you living like this?
So sad
(Tell me why nothing I did was good enough)
