Happy Days

[Verse 1]
You lit the match inside my chest
Watched it burn, then called it “blessed”
You said you needed space to breathe
Guess that meant a world without me
[Pre-Chorus]
You took my trust, turned it to smoke
I laugh it off, but I still choke
[Chorus]
My world went up in flames
Just so you could have your happy days
Now I swallow my pain
I try to hide it
But we know deep down with you I can't disguise it
My world went up in flames
All for your, all for your happy days
[Verse 2]
Your sweater’s still on my back seat
I drive past all our old retreat
Tell your friends I’m doing fine
While biting down on every line
[Pre-Chorus]
You post your peace, your perfect sky
I scroll and say I’m “so glad,” lie
[Chorus]
My world went up in flames
Just so you could have your happy days
Now I swallow my pain
I try to hide it
But we know deep down with you I can't disguise it
My world went up in flames
All for your, all for your happy days
[Bridge]
I paint on a grin till my jaw feels broken (oh)
Your name is a wound every time it’s spoken
If healing means learning to hate what we raised
Then let it all crash, let it all blaze
[Chorus]
My world went up in flames
Just so you could have your happy days
Now I swallow my pain
I try to hide it
But we know deep down with you I can't disguise it
My world went up in flames
All for your, all for your happy days
My world went up in flames
Hope you’re smiling in your happy days

Bass glues the low end with melodic fills, overhead-heavy drums in the hook. Bridge pulls back to a half-time, reverb-washed vocal before a final, higher-key chorus with stacked harmonies and a feedback tail., world, deep, emo, happy
