Why Must I Be Happy?
Why must I be happy?
Why must I be sad?
Why must I be anything
Good or bad?
Why must I be driven?
Why must I be chased?
Why do you follow me
And how can I ever escape?
All my dreams, all of my desires
Are far away and dead
All of my nostalgia
Is stuck like a nail in my head
And I still love you
It's the only thing to do
Even when I don't
It's only because I won't
I used to think
That I could leave it all behind
That one day
I would just go blind
But I can't say I regret a thing
Though I wish I could
At least
That would be a feeling
Why must I be happy?
Why must I be sad?
Why must I be anything
Good or bad?
Why must I be driven?
Why must I be chased?
Why do you follow me
And how, how can I ever escape?
Why must I be sad?
Why must I be anything
Good or bad?
Why must I be driven?
Why must I be chased?
Why do you follow me
And how can I ever escape?
All my dreams, all of my desires
Are far away and dead
All of my nostalgia
Is stuck like a nail in my head
And I still love you
It's the only thing to do
Even when I don't
It's only because I won't
I used to think
That I could leave it all behind
That one day
I would just go blind
But I can't say I regret a thing
Though I wish I could
At least
That would be a feeling
Why must I be happy?
Why must I be sad?
Why must I be anything
Good or bad?
Why must I be driven?
Why must I be chased?
Why do you follow me
And how, how can I ever escape?
