Lyrics

[Verse 1]

The summer's gone too soon

The winter's coming out

The lies are falling

And, I'm just bawling

You had me going out of my head

And I look stupid

The game was gruesome

Went deep for awhile

And then it'd leave for awhile

But there's no need for you now

Because I'm free of you now

You see I'm

[Verse 2]

Happy (Happy)

Things are lookin good now (Good now)

I feel so alive (So alive)

I'm on overdrive (overdrive)

I'm killing it, I'm killing it

[Verse 3]

Good, I'm good

Don't try coming back

I'm good, I'm good

'Cause I will not be there

I'm good, I'm good

It's not like you ever cared

[Verse 4]

Smiles would die too soon

Our days were filled with frowns

My job was calling

My life was falling

My friends said I looked like I was dead

Did I look stupid?

Oh, damn you Cupid

You were shooting at me

Instead it landed on her

If this is how it should be

We should have stayed how we were

Cause now I'm

[Verse 5]

Happy (Happy)

Things are looking good now (Good now)

I feel so alive (So alive)

I'm on overdrive (overdrive)

I'm killing it, I'm killing it

[Verse 6]

I'm good, I'm good

Don't try coming back

I'm good, I'm good

'Cause I will not be there

I'm good, I'm good

It's not like you ever cared

[Verse 7]

Damn you're stupid

How'd you lose it?

You had it all

But you treated it wrong

You've got some things to resolve

So I requested this song

Hey I'm just

[Verse 8]

Happy (Happy)

Things are lookin' good now (Good now)

I feel so alive (So alive)

I'm on overdrive (Overdrive)

I'm killing it, I'm killing it

[Verse 9]

I'm good, I'm good

Don't try coming back

I'm good, I'm good

'Cause I will not be there

I'm good, I'm good

It's not like you ever cared
