Happy For Me
You call me up once every year
And each year it's the same
You tell me that you're just checking in
And I have to hide my pain
So I tell you how I like my job and love my family
Then as if you never did me wrong
You say you're happy for me
You start to joke about the past
How naive we were back then
Your voice in the receiver tears old wounds all over again
You say you're glad that I grew up
That I'm not who I used to be
I grit my teeth and hold my tears
And you're happy for me
Happy for me
Happy for me
I don't think you should be allowed to be happy for me
'Cause the pain you caused
Makes it so hard
To take you seriously
When you call me up just once a year
Saying you're happy for me
Are you happy you don't know me
Are you glad that I've moved on
Does it make you smile to know you caused the pain behind this song
Even though I know you mean no harm
It's hard for me to see
How the one who always made me sad
Can be happy for me
Happy for me
Happy for me
I don't think you should be allowed to be happy for me
'Cause the pain you caused
Makes it so hard
To take you seriously
When you call me up just once a year
Saying you're happy for me
You're so happy
And each year it's the same
You tell me that you're just checking in
And I have to hide my pain
So I tell you how I like my job and love my family
Then as if you never did me wrong
You say you're happy for me
You start to joke about the past
How naive we were back then
Your voice in the receiver tears old wounds all over again
You say you're glad that I grew up
That I'm not who I used to be
I grit my teeth and hold my tears
And you're happy for me
Happy for me
Happy for me
I don't think you should be allowed to be happy for me
'Cause the pain you caused
Makes it so hard
To take you seriously
When you call me up just once a year
Saying you're happy for me
Are you happy you don't know me
Are you glad that I've moved on
Does it make you smile to know you caused the pain behind this song
Even though I know you mean no harm
It's hard for me to see
How the one who always made me sad
Can be happy for me
Happy for me
Happy for me
I don't think you should be allowed to be happy for me
'Cause the pain you caused
Makes it so hard
To take you seriously
When you call me up just once a year
Saying you're happy for me
You're so happy
