Happier Than Ever

[Chorus]

When I'm away from you

I'm happier than ever

Wish I could explain it better

I wish it wasn't true

[Verse 1]

Give me a day or two to think of something clever

To write myself a letter

To tell me what to do, mm-mm

Do you read my interviews?

Or do you skip my avenue?

When you said you were passin' through

Was I even on your way?

I knew when I asked you to

Be cool about what I was tellin' you

You'd do the opposite of what you said you'd do

And I'd end up more afraid

Don't say it isn't fair

You clearly weren't aware that you made me miserable

So if you really wanna know

[Chorus]

When I'm away from you

I'm happier than ever

Wish I could explain it better

I wish it wasn't true

[Intermission]

[Verse 2]

You call me again, drunk in your Benz

Drivin' home under the influence

You scared me to death, but I'm wastin' my breath

'Cause you only care about your -

I don't relate to you

No, I don't relate to you, no

'Cause I'd never treat me this -y

You make me hate this city

[Verse 3]

And I don't talk - about you on the internet

Never told anyone anything bad

'Cause that -s embarrassing, and you were my everything

All that you did was make me - sad

So don't waste the time I don't have

And don't try to make me feel bad

I could talk about every time that you showed up on time

But I'd have an empty line 'cause you never did

Never paid any mind to my mother or friends

So I shut them all out for you 'cause I was a kid

[Outro]

And you ruined everything good

Always said you were misunderstood

Made all my moments your own

Just - leave me alone
