Happier is a song in which he talks about a friend of his that is dealing with depression. A depression that made him take his own life. He feels as if he was holding back all he had to give to prevent this, he’s tied down, all out of gas, turned down the chance, didn’t want to fall out of bed, hold...
[Verse 1]
I'm tied down
I'm all out of gas
I turned down the chance
Didn't want to fall out of bed
I'm holding back all the time
‘Cause everything is overgrown and tired
I'm hanging by a thread on a vine
I'm asking for help from above
I'm trying to find that reason to love
[Verse 2]
‘Cause I'm a debt
I'm rolling back
You make amends, you give what you get
I'm holding back all the signs
When I really should have called you that night
It eats me alive all the time
I remembered I had something to give
I'm trying to find that reason to live
It's all you know when our time is all gone
[Chorus]
In all this time, I hope you find
A way to be happier, happier
Through all the lights, the darkest nights
I wish you were happier, happier
And all you know, this world's so cold
So won't you pretend like we could never wonder why?
In all this time, I hope you find
A way to be happier, happier
[Bridge]
Turning my back, turning my back again
Never look back, never look back again
I'm taking my time, I'm learning to let you in
But I needed you to guide me out from here
I know you see right through me
We all went blind
The hand goes backwards
I count the time
[Chorus]
In all this time, I hope you find
A way to be happier, happier
Through all the lights, the darkest nights
I wish you were happier, happier
And all you know, this world's so cold
So won't you pretend like we could never wonder why?
In all this time, I hope you find
A way to be happier, happier
[Outro]
Happier, happier
Happier, happier
