I wrote this song as a way of expressing how I feel when it comes to me feeling sad. As I got older, I realized that most people try way too hard to be happy that they forget that it’s okay not to be okay. I felt so strongly about this that I sat down and wrote a song about it.
“Only I Get Sad” is...
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse]
Am I alright
What hurts this time
Oh, I don't know why I cry sometimes
(I cry sometimes)
[Pre-Chorus]
I go down in my emotions
Not quite alright, but never broken
I'm just fine unlike everybody else
'Cuz as far as I can tell
[Chorus]
Only I get sad in the summer
Only I get sad in the summer
No, I don't need a lover
I just need time to recover I
Only I get sad in
Only I get sad
[Verse]
Am I alright
What do I feel inside my mind
Don't know why I try sometimes (Oh, no)
[Pre-Chorus]
I go down in my emotions
Not quite alright but never broken
I'm just fine, I'm lyin' to myself
Just like everybody else (Oh, no)
I'm just walkin' through the motions
Tears fall down, my eye's an ocean
I'm just fine unlike everybody else
'Cuz as far as I can tell
[Chorus]
Only I get sad in the summer
Only I get sad in the summer
No, I don't need a lover
I just need time to recover I
Only I get sad in
Only I get sad
[Outro]
I go down in my emotions
Not quite alright but never broken
I'm just fine, I'm lyin' to myself
Just like everybody else
I'm just walkin' through the motions
(Through the motions)
Feelings show, but never spoken
(Feelings show, yeah)
I'm just fine unlike everybody else
(I'm just fine)
As far as I can tell
(Oh, no)
