It's easier to listen to sad music when you're not sad
It's calming and nurturing
Now I'm powerfully sad and I can't help but feel my heartstrings be plucked along with the resonance of a sad song
I wonder what I do to deserve such morose moments
Everything I have done has put me here, and I am responsible for my own fear
I fear for my wellness, for my wellness is based on love
I want to love and be loved, and without this I am an empty vessel,
Ready for the next person to take advantage of my convenience
I'll never hear a sad song the same way
I'll always remember this sadness and how I allowed it to stay
Sadness is just a pit stop but I'm all out of gas
I put my thumb up and face the highway, hoping for someone to hurt me less than the last
I could find happiness over time or I could become the victim of a crime
I could become the criminal myself and hurt people more and more
Innocent lovers strangled by heartbreak just because I bore
I'm a dangerous thing to behold and yet I just want to be held
And so I become a sad song, lyrics not sung but yelled
