I have a sad song,
I don’t sing it a lot.
I only sing it when I’m sad,
And that doesn’t happen very often.
My sad song

I hide my sad feelings,
I hide it from friends at school.
I only bring it out when it’s terrible,
And there are not very many terrible feelings.
My sad song

When I bring out my terrible feelings,
I almost cry my eyes out.
I don’t become my full self,
For at least a little while.
My sad song

I’m 99% always happy,
And at least 1% sad.
Why be happy when there’s so much sorrow in the world?
What is the true meaning of happy?
All I can think of is…
My sad song
