why is my heart always so heavy
isn't my sadness enough already
i'm just trying to keep steady
i'm trying
i'm trying
i'm trying
i'm trying
but it just seems like i'm always crying
and when people ask it seems like i'm always denying
they keep prying and sighing
i'm biting and fighting to keep them out
without a doubt my annoyance is shown
don't use that tone, you'll end up alone
i know they won't condone me
but i just want to be free
free of the shackles of my heart that holds me down
free of the sadness all around
why is my heart always so heavy
maybe it's because i don't carry any confetti
