Born Sad - Mary Lambert

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 boots to my chest

Asking the pages

«Will anybody anywhere, ever love me back?»

I got some secrets they 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)

(Crying and laughing at the same time)

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
