The Wrecks - Why Can't I Just Be Happy? Lyrics


Misread a dose of Prednisone
Cried so hard, I couldn’t stand
Felt the rage and let it linger
Long enough to break my hand
Ah
Maybe this is who I am
Ah

I’m too old to be feeling like this
Too young for a midlife crisis
I’m somewhere in the middle
And I’m feeling
Feeling alone as ever, is anyone really out there?

Why can’t, why can’t I just be happy?
Did I, did I do something wrong?
Why’s everybody staring at me?
I think I’ve been awake too long
Why can’t, why can’t I just be happy?
Did I, did I do something wrong?
Why’s everybody staring at me?
I think I’ve been awake too long
For way too long

Misread the room and killed the mood
And just like that I’m walking home
I guess my friends got better shit to do
Than call me back

‘Cause I’m too old to be feeling like this
Too young for a midlife crisis
I’m somewhere in the middle
And I’m feeling
Feeling alone as ever, is anyone really out there?

Why can’t, why can’t I just be happy?
Did I, did I do something wrong?
Why’s everybody staring at me?
I think I’ve been awake too long
Why can’t, why can’t I just be happy?
Did I, did I do something wrong?
Why’s everybody staring at me?
I think I’ve been awake too long
For way too long

I’m too old to be feeling like this
Too young for a midlife crisis
I’m somewhere in the middle
I’m too old to be feeling like this
Too young for a midlife crisis
I’m somewhere in the middle
And I’m feeling
Feeling alone as ever, is anyone really out there?

Why can’t, why can’t I just be happy?
Did I, did I do something wrong?
Why’s everybody staring at me?
I think I’ve been awake too long
Why can’t, why can’t I just be happy?
Did I, did I do something wrong?
Why’s everybody staring at me?
I think I’ve been awake too long
For way too long
