Lyrics Sadness Don't Own Me - The Staves

Oh, my god
It's been so long
I'm a passenger, satellite
Still hanging on

Man am I terrified?
'Least I can say that I tried
Man am I burning alive?
What have I become?
Sadness don't own me for long

All that time, over too soon
And there's panic rising up, spilling out
Eclipsing the moon
Deep, deep, down
Getting back up
Check your jacket pocket
Check your jeans
But it's not enough

Man am I terrified?
(Take it all away)
'Least I can say that I tried
(When I'm still the same)
Man am I burning alive?
What have I become?
Oh sadness don't own me for long
Own me for long

What have I become
Oh sadness don't own me for long
Own me for long
