Sad, Sad, Sad

Lyrics

Verse 1
Coffee gone cold on the desk
Your name half-wrote in my notes
Phone face down on the bed
Like it knows how this goes

Tried to outrun it at work
Laughed too hard at their jokes
Every time someone asks
I just choke

Chorus
I’m sad
Sad
Sad
For the things we never tried
All the words we never said
Got them stuck on my side

I’m mad
Mad
Mad
At the way we let it slide
But under all of that
I’m just sad
Sad
Sad inside

Verse 2
Your key still hangs on the hook
Right where you left it that night
I tell my friends that I’m good
Then I sleep with all the lights

Scrolling through pieces of us
Little films that don’t age
Pause on your half of the grin
Then I fade

Chorus
I’m sad
Sad
Sad
For the plans we threw away
All the Sundays in your car
That just vanished in a day

I’m mad
Mad
Mad
At the way we said “we’re fine”
But under all of that
I’m just sad
Sad
Sad this time

Bridge
Maybe in another life
We learn how to stay
Maybe in another life
We don’t walk away (oh)

Chorus
I’m sad
Sad
Sad
Every room still says your name
All the echoes in these walls
Keep on playing back the same

I’m mad
Mad
Mad
But the truth I always hide
Is under all of that
I’m just sad
Sad
Sad tonight
