lyrics

I'm not allowed to be sad
Cuz for you it's no fun
To see me lulling around
You'd rather be with someone

Who never seems to get mad
Who holds her liquor quite well
And doesn't end up lying on a bed
Screaming in her head
So forgive me for what I've done

But I'd rather let it out
Than let you shove me back in
You patronize me and define me
Like I'm your next patient
Chalk it up to your labels and quick fixes
Belittle me until I give in
You're making me feel bad about feeling bad

I'm not allowed to be sad

I'm not supposed to react
I gotta keep it in check
Smile on and tongue in
There's no time to deflect

All the woes that are me
How I'm all over the place
And God fucking forbid
You'd ever have to take it face to face

But I'd rather let it out
Than let you shove me back in
You patronize me and define me
Like I'm your next patient
Chalk it up to your labels and quick fixes
Belittle me until I give in
You're making me feel bad about feeling bad

I'm not allowed to be sad

But I'd rather let it out
Than let you shove me back in
You patronize me and define me
like I'm some next patient
Chalk it up to your labels and quick fixes
Belittle me until I give in
You're making me feel bad
About feeling bad
I'm not allowed to be sad

I'm not allowed to be sad
I'm not allowed to be sad

But I'd rather let it out
Than let you shove me back in
You patronize me and define me
Like I'm your next patient

I'm not allowed to be sad
