  • Sometimes I don't wanna be happy
    Don't hold it against me
    If I'm down just leave me there
    Let me be sad

    Sun's up, I already wanna lay down
    Friends calling, are you really tryna go out? (No)
    Don't wanna get dressed up to pretend (no)
    I can lie and say I'm fine
    Maybe you'll stop calling then

    I've got chips on my shoulder
    Only getting older
    So I keep to myself
    Ain't tryna complain
    Just don't wanna explain it

    But sometimes I don't wanna be happy
    Don't hold it against me
    If I'm down just leave me there
    Let me be sad
    Sometimes I just wanna be lonely
    Don't need you to hold me
    If I'm low you don't need to care
    Let me be sad

    What's the matter with that? (Oh oh oh)
    What's the matter with that? (Oh oh oh)
    What's the matter with

    Bad days, it's okay, let me feel it (uh-huh, uh-huh)
    And some days you've got to break your heart to heal it (heal it)
    I know I'm gonna feel this way again
    I can lie and say I'm fine
    But that wouldn't change anything

    I've got chips on my shoulder
    Only getting older
    So I keep to myself
    Ain't tryna complain
    Just don't wanna explain it

    But sometimes I don't wanna be happy
    Don't hold it against me
    If I'm down just leave me there
    Let me be sad
    Sometimes I just wanna be lonely
    Don't need you to hold me
    If I'm low you don't need to care
    Let me be sad

    What's the matter with that? (Oh oh oh)
    What's the matter with that? (Oh oh oh)

    What's the matter with sadness
    Making me feel the way I feel right now
    Goodness
    Can't force you when you feel fucked up
    It's the salt that's on my tongue
    It's the salt that's on my tongue

    But sometimes I don't wanna be happy
    Don't hold it against me
    If I'm down just leave me there
    Let me be sad
    Sometimes I just wanna be lonely
    Don't need you to hold me
    If I'm low you don't need to care
    Let me be sad

    What's the matter with that? (Oh oh oh)
    What's the matter with that? (Oh oh oh)
    Just let me be sad Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
