Verse 1
I keep waiting on a better day
Like it's gonna find me first
Turns out nothing really changes
If nothing changes first
I kinda think someday
It'll all work out...
Everything will find its way
But it's been years living this way
And someday never came.
Pre-Chorus
I'm tired of excuses
Tired of the same routine
If I want a different ending...
It starts with me.
Chorus
I'm not happy...
But I want to be.
I'm sick of sleeping with this misery...
Is starting over all I really need?
I'm not happy...
But I want to be.
Verse 2
I know every bad habit
Collecting issues like i have to have it
Funny how it's easier
To know them than to change them
I don't need another Monday
Or another New Year's Day
I just need to stop pretending...
I'm okay this way.
Thinking someday it'll all be OK
Pre-Chorus
I'm tired of excuses
Tired of the same routine
If I want a different ending...
It starts with me.
Chorus
I'm not happy...
But I want to be.
I'm sick of sleeping with this misery...
Is starting over all I really need?
I'm not happy...
But I want to be.
Bridge
I've always been the first to listen
The first one picking up the phone
Trying to carry everybody
So they never felt alone
Tried to help them help themselves
Funny... this whole time
I forgot to check on myself.
Final Chorus
I'm not happy...
But I want to be.
I'm sick of sleeping with this misery...
Is starting over all I really need?
I'm not happy...
But I want to be.
I'm not happy...
But I want to be.
