Lyrics

Told me
It was over
Hoodie on my head, cold breath in the air
People walkin' by like I'm not even there
Last three nights felt like a hundred years
I get paid for my pain long as I can make it rhyme
But sometimes I can't tell if it's even mine
Either way it's beautiful, look at how it shines
It sounds like
Ooh, it's all in my head (My head)
Lightning and thunderin'
Ooh, I'm not dead yet
In case you were wonderin'
This is what a sad song sounds like
It's been playin' in my head for my whole life
It's beautiful and cruel at the same time
Yeah
And this is what a broken heart beats like
It's tearin' up my chest like a jackknife
But it gets me through the good and the bad times
This is what a sad song sounds like
Told me
It was over
Told me
It was over
This is what a sad song sounds like
Say it like you love me, say it like you care
I know that I'm fucked up, I don't even care
When I close my eyes, I swear I can disappear
It sounds like
Ooh, it's all in my head
Lightning and thunderin'
Ooh, I'm not dead yet
In case you were wonderin'
This is what a sad song sounds like
It's been playin' in my head for my whole life (Whole life)
It's beautiful and cruel at the same time
Yeah
And this is what a broken heart beats like (Beats like)
It's tearin' up my chest like a jackknife
But it gets me through the good and the bad times (Bad times)
This is what a sad song sounds like
Told me
It was over
Told me
This is what a sad song sounds like
Told me
It was over
Told me
It was over
This is what a sad song sounds like
