๐ Lyrics
My dad told me he hoped that he lived long enough
To see me happy again
I didn't know what to say to that
So all I said back was
Yeah, me too
I wanna smile without hesitation
Laugh without any reservation
Say I'm fine, and mean it
I wanna be happy
Like I know I should be
I'm sorry truly
My sadness makes you sad, too
And since I can't be happy for me
I wanna be happy for you
People tell me I look happier
Feels like a lie
Maybe I'm just better at hiding it now
Or maybe this is what healing feels like
Maybe all that it is
Is not knowing what it is
Until you do it
I was hurting so bad
For so long
And then i wasn't
Before I knew it
And there was no graduation day
No clear finish line
Just me, working
At healing my hurting and wondering
If i'll be method acting for the rest of my life
People tell me I look happier
And now I think, I do too
Either that, or I'm a damn good actor
Cos even I've got myself fooled
Somewhere I stopped
Having to pretend to be fine
Don't know when it happened
But somewhere method acting
Turned into real life
There was no graduation day
I don't know and don't care
Where i crossed the finish line
Because healing is learning
That healing from hurting
Was only a matter of time
It was, only, a matter of
It was, only, a matter of
It was, only, a matter of
It was, only, a matter of
It was, only, a matter of
It was only ever a matter
Of time
To see me happy again
I didn't know what to say to that
So all I said back was
Yeah, me too
I wanna smile without hesitation
Laugh without any reservation
Say I'm fine, and mean it
I wanna be happy
Like I know I should be
I'm sorry truly
My sadness makes you sad, too
And since I can't be happy for me
I wanna be happy for you
People tell me I look happier
Feels like a lie
Maybe I'm just better at hiding it now
Or maybe this is what healing feels like
Maybe all that it is
Is not knowing what it is
Until you do it
I was hurting so bad
For so long
And then i wasn't
Before I knew it
And there was no graduation day
No clear finish line
Just me, working
At healing my hurting and wondering
If i'll be method acting for the rest of my life
People tell me I look happier
And now I think, I do too
Either that, or I'm a damn good actor
Cos even I've got myself fooled
Somewhere I stopped
Having to pretend to be fine
Don't know when it happened
But somewhere method acting
Turned into real life
There was no graduation day
I don't know and don't care
Where i crossed the finish line
Because healing is learning
That healing from hurting
Was only a matter of time
It was, only, a matter of
It was, only, a matter of
It was, only, a matter of
It was, only, a matter of
It was, only, a matter of
It was only ever a matter
Of time
