Look straight at me and just try to say something you mean I'm a puppet tied up stuffed with anxiety No, I won't go to dinner, you won't watch me eat In five years, you'll still wonder if I have real feet Far too many a time I have seen my mom cry More than you I presume 'cause your dad didn't die So I'll tell you the secret to staying alive You just laugh and cry harder and scream to survive ♪ Don't you know how to make me happy? You let me weep and you do so gladly ♪ Follow me as I tread water and start to believe That I'm floating above all these monstrosities On your left you'll see colors that don't yet exist On your right is the home to all lone pacifists Far below is the black hole that wants me to drown And the bad things I've done that always stick around In your mind, dear is something that you cannot hold It's a world and you'll have it until you grow old ♪ Don't you know how to make me happy? You let me weep and you do so gladly ♪ Don't keep me sweet and toss out the rest Even though it's what you do best You can't keep me sweet and toss out the rest I'll never stop making a mess
Don't you know how to make me happy? You let me weep and you do so gladly
