Born Sad Lyrics by Mary Lambert

Grief Creature

0

Keeping my head above water is all that I know how to do
But it's kinda beautiful, underneath it all
Ever since I was a child, I was always a sad one
And "Why you gotta cry all the time, all the time?"
Keeping my head above water
Is all that I can do
Did anybody ever teach you
Some people are born sad
Am I just born sad
Born sad
Born sad
Born sad
Born sad
Born sad
Clinging my books to my chest
Asking the pages
"Will anybody anywhere, ever love me back?"
I got some secrets that keep creeping out
In my sleep
Asking "My good god, will they ever go away?"
Am I just born sad, born sad
Born sad
Born sad, born sad
Born sad
Ohhhh
(Everybody wants to be happy, nobody knows how to do it [repeated])
(Crying and laughing at the same time [repeated])
Ohhhh
Get out of bed
Sometimes it's hard to get out of bed
Sometimes I don't get out of bed
But you gotta get out of bed
You gotta get out of bed
Sometimes it's hard to get out of bed
Sometimes I don't get out of bed
Sometimes it's hard to get out of bed
Sometimes it's hard to get out of bed
Maybe I'm born sad born sad
It's okay I'm born sad born sad
It's okay I'm born sad born sad
Maybe I'm born sad
Maybe I'm born sad
Maybe I'm born sad
