Well I
Ate the pills
Gave confessional spills
But still I had the blues
And I
Did all the drills
So I’d sit still
Just to be able to pay my bills
And I
Changed my life
Cut my vices
Just to make it through the night
And I swear I
Read the signs
Drew my lines
But still I couldn’t try
All these F’s for effort
Killed any thought of a fighting chance
I guess if sanity won’t deliver
I’ll fake it till it gets better
I took all the advice
Rolled the dice
Read the rules and broke them bad
If this is as good as it gets
I’ll take it
But I’m not crying in my bed
Fuck it,
I’m done being sad
Na na na
Fuck it, I’m done being sad
Well I
Watched the shows
Missed the jokes
But still I felt the same
And I
Lost the days
Rot my brain
Just to make the time behave
And I
Let it play
Wide awake
Till the credits said my name
And I swear I
Tried to laugh
Did the math
But still I felt erased
All these F’s for effort
Killing time just to feel okay
I guess if silence won’t surrender
I’ll drown it out in HD pain
I took all the advice
Rolled the dice
Read the rules and broke them bad
If this is as good as it gets
I’ll take it
But I’m not crying in my bed
Fuck it,
I’m done being sad
Na na na
Fuck it, I’m done being sad
Fuck it, I’m done being sad
And I
Breathed it in
Sun on skin
Just to give myself some help
And I
Hugged the trees
Fell to knees
Tried to wish myself to hell
And I
Stayed too late
Tempted fate
Kissed a stranger, went to bed
And I swear I
Felt alive
For a night
Then I woke up just as sad
So I
Tried the shit
They say wouldn’t fix
A time or two or six
And I
Chased the buzz
Lost the rush
Just to feel something at all
And I
Swore this time
I’d be fine
If I didn’t feel so raw
All these F’s for effort
Rebranding pain as growth
I guess if healing won’t deliver
I’ll market sadness as a joke
And all these F’s for effort
Killed any thought of a fighting chance
I guess if sanity won’t deliver
I’ll fake it till it gets better
I’ll fake it till it gets better
I’ll grade myself on effort
Fuck it, I’m done being sad
I said fuck it
I’m done being sad
