Born Sad
I used to hope I could be famous
So in all the local bars you'd hear my songs
And maybe then you'd know the girl that you'd passed up
But by then I would already be long gone
I sit and talk about these feelings
I see her every second week
And when she asks about my history
She says that she can see I'm suffering
I know it's stupid, it's just
Why's it gotta hurt like that
What's its right to hurt so bad
I was born sad, and wondering why the things you wanted made me cry
I don't know why I had to burn
The whole damn house down just to learn
The things it seemed nobody else had to
I want to be with you and be happy
Oh, I want to be with you and just be free
The young have the feelings but none of the words
Pain left a hole like a hot coal, an endless burn
And whenever love you touch me I'm thinking of it
And I cry when I come cause the closeness hits
Why's it gotta hurt like that?
What's its right to hurt so bad?
I was born sad and wondering why
The things you wanted made me cry
I don't know why I had to burn
The whole damn house down just to learn
The things it seemed nobody else had to
Hey, I want to be with you and be happy
Boy, I want to be with you and just be free
But I've been haunted by the heartbreak under stage lights
Small time crowd
I put a thousand miles between us just to keep it around
How Sandon laughed when he said, 'yeah I know why he ended it'
I had to find my own way out
So I used to hope I could be famous
Before I could see the reasons why
Maybe it had to hurt like that
When you're seventeen it hurts so bad
I was born sad and wondering why
I wanted boys who made me cry
I don't know why I had to burn
My whole damn life down just to learn
The things it seemed nobody else had to
Only to be with you and be happy
Only to be with you
Only to be with you
I was born sad and wondering
Born sad and wondering why
So in all the local bars you'd hear my songs
And maybe then you'd know the girl that you'd passed up
But by then I would already be long gone
I sit and talk about these feelings
I see her every second week
And when she asks about my history
She says that she can see I'm suffering
I know it's stupid, it's just
Why's it gotta hurt like that
What's its right to hurt so bad
I was born sad, and wondering why the things you wanted made me cry
I don't know why I had to burn
The whole damn house down just to learn
The things it seemed nobody else had to
I want to be with you and be happy
Oh, I want to be with you and just be free
The young have the feelings but none of the words
Pain left a hole like a hot coal, an endless burn
And whenever love you touch me I'm thinking of it
And I cry when I come cause the closeness hits
Why's it gotta hurt like that?
What's its right to hurt so bad?
I was born sad and wondering why
The things you wanted made me cry
I don't know why I had to burn
The whole damn house down just to learn
The things it seemed nobody else had to
Hey, I want to be with you and be happy
Boy, I want to be with you and just be free
But I've been haunted by the heartbreak under stage lights

I don't know why I had to burn
My whole damn life down just to learn
The things it seemed nobody else had to
Only to be with you and be happy
Only to be with you
Only to be with you
I was born sad and wondering
Born sad and wondering why
