Understanding the Lyrics – Way Less Sad

SK Understanding the Lyrics - Way Less Sad

I’m back with another song that has been stuck in my head/speaking to me lately.

This song has gotten me through a couple of pretty tough months. It’s upbeat and pop-y energy is great when your day JUST. SUCKS. But, perhaps we can realize that it sucks just a little less right now.

Livin' sucks, but it's suckin' just a little now...

Then there are the times and the people who just want you to buck-up, put a smile on.

You can do it!

But then are mad at you that your smile is only on the surface.

No, Kristen, I can’t just BE happy. It’s not that easy.

I'm a-okay, I'm a-okay. You say it but you just don't mean it. You're so insane, you're so insane. Shut up and just enjoy this feelin'.
Don't you love it, Don't you love it? No, I ain't happy yet, but I'm way less sad.

In the end, it’s not always trying for happiness and bliss. Maybe just aim for less terrible.

Baby steps.

I am here with you; I am here for you.

Way Less Sad

Hey-hey-hey, hey-hey-hey, hey-hey-hey
Hey-hey-hey, hey-hey-hey (oh-oh-oh), hey-hey-hey

I should move ’cause New York is gettin’ muddy out
There’s L.A. but it’s always kinda sunny out
And I don’t wanna hurt no more
So I set my bar real low

I’m a-okay, I’m a-okay (ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
You say it but you just don’t mean it
You’re so insane, you’re so insane (ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
Shut up and just enjoy this feelin’

Don’t you love it, don’t you love it?
No, I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
Don’t you love it, don’t you love it?
No, I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad

Hеy-hey-hey, hey-hеy-hey, hey-hey-hey
But I’m way less sad
Hey-hey-hey, hey-hey-hey (oh-oh-oh), hey-hey-hey
But I’m way less sad

I wake up and I’m not so mad at Twitter now
Livin’ sucks but it’s suckin’ just a little now
And I don’t wanna cry no more
So I set my bar real low

I’m a-okay, I’m a-okay (ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
You say it but you just don’t mean it
You’re so insane, you’re so insane (ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
Shut up and just enjoy this feelin’

Don’t you love it, don’t you love it?
No, I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad
Don’t you love it, don’t you love it?
No, I ain’t happy yet (happy yet)
But I’m way less sad

I may wrong, I may be wrong
It’s stupid but it’s all I have

Don’t you love it, don’t you love it?
No, I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad

Well, I can’t fall asleep and I’m losin’ my mind
‘Cause it’s half-past three and my brain’s on fire
I’ve been countin’ sheep but the sheep all died
And I’m tryin’ too hard but I can’t not try
Well, I can’t fall asleep and I’m losin’ my mind
‘Cause it’s half-past three and my brain’s on fire (brain’s on fire)
I’ve been countin’ sheep but the sheep all died
And I’m not dead yet, so I guess I’ll be alright

Don’t you love it, don’t you love it?
No, I ain’t happy yet (happy yet)
But I’m way less sad
Don’t you love it, don’t you love it?
No, I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad

I may be wrong (I may be wrong)
I may be wrong (I may be wrong)
It’s stupid but it’s all I have

Don’t you love it, don’t you love it?
No, I ain’t happy yet
But I’m way less sad Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
