Lyrics Now I'm Sad (Boo Hoo) - Alibi Lounge feat. Crywank

My concept of happiness is completely based on fiction
Accustomed to disappointment from the human condition
I've been fed exaggerated emotions
and I've taken them as wisdom
Romance has torn me a new one
And now

And now I'm sad
And now I'm sad

Try and fish for some compliments
Try and find some self-worth
Try and fall in love with another person
Try to be loved by the earth

But when you're met with constant let-downs
It feels like things can only get worse
Expectation tore me a new one
And now

And now I'm sad
And now I'm sad

Hindsight fucked me up
The past facilitates resentment
And I get told not to dwell on it
And to live for the present
Livin' in first-person is hard when you're not on a track
And if the present is a gift
Then I want to send it back

And now I'm sad
And now I'm sad
And now I'm sad
And now I'm sa-aa-ad

Roger Ebert said
"If you have to ask what it symbolizes, then it didn't"
I have to work my way around this by being blatant
Got tons of wasted metaphors across my writing pad
The only thing I feel honest in expressing is the fact that I am sad
