i’ll be happy when lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'll be happy when this lonely city feels like mine
Maybe when I have a license and a car to drive
I can take a trip to nowhere on the 405
Just to feel alive
I'll be happy when I finally can find real friends
Who all like me as I am and they don't all pretend
That I'm more than just a temporary means to an end
Thinkin' maybe then that I'll be fine

[Chorus]
But what if it's all too late?
What if I'm bound to break?
'Cause what if there's nowhere to escape?
Once the high starts to fade, fade
I start to fade, fade, I start to fade

[Verse 2]
I'll be happy when my smiles aren't in self-defense
When I finally belong outside convenience
And they ask me how I'm doing and they really care for real
I fear, I fear, I fear that life's not mine

[Chorus]
And it's all too late
What if I'm bound to break?
'Cause what if there's nowhere to escape?
Once the high starts to fade, fade
I start to fade, fade, don't wanna fade, fade
I start to fade, fade, don't wanna fade
[Outro]
I'll be a buzzkill forever
Be a buzzkill forever
Be a buzzkill forever
Be a buzzkill forever
Be a buzzkill forever
Be a buzzkill forever
Be a buzzkill forever
Be a buzzkill forever
