about

The Obligatory Sad Song™

lyrics

[Verse 1] I know it doesn't really make sense now but
If you could please just hear me out
I've thought a lot about what I'm going to say
And I know that these thoughts won't go away

[Prechorus 1] I gave you all the best of me
But you were too caught up to see
Everything we could've been
I can't do this again

[Chorus] And everything I ever wanted
Was right in front of me
But you couldn't handle the pressure
And it's too late for me to be
The only one who's fighting
For us to stay in love
So please tell me darling
Who are you thinking of

[Verse 2] I feel I've gone and done this all over again
I've let myself become the victim in the end
I'd kill your silence with the promise of happiness
But you were happy before and I will promise no more

[Prechorus 2] If you give up on me today
You already know that I won't stay
The proudest moment of my life
Will be when I tell you goodbye

[Bridge] I was right here
But you couldn't see
Love is not just
A lonely place for me

[Chorus]

[Chorus + Bridge]
