someone once told me
that you have to choose what you win or lose you cant have everything
and dont you take chances
you might feel the pain
dont you love in vain
cause love wont set you free
i could stand by the side
and watch this life pass me by
so unhappy but safe as could be
so what if it hurts me
so what if i break down
so what if this world
just throws me off the edge
my feet run out of ground
i gotta find my place
i wanna hear my sound
dont care about all pain in front of me
cause im just tryin' to be happy
just wanna be happy
holding on tightly
just cant let it go
just tryin' to play my roll
slowly disappear
well all these days
they feel like theyre the same
just different faces, different names
get me outta here
well i can stand by the side
and watch this life pass me by
pass me by
so what if it hurts me
so what if i break down
so what if this world
just throws me off the edge
my feet run out of ground
i gotta find my place
i wanna hear my sound
dont care about all pain in front of me
cause im just tryna be happy
just wanna be happy
so any turns that i cant see
ill count the strangers on this road
but don’t say victim
dont say anything
so what if it hurts me
so what if i break down
so what if this world
just throws me off the edge
my feet run out of ground
i gotta find my place
i wanna hear my sound
dont care about all the pain in front of me
cause im just gonna be happy
just wanna be happy
