Happy
Chasing Happiness: The Emotional Journey of The Little Killers
Lyrics
It wouldn't be so bad
Expressing a negative situation that wouldn't be unbearable
If I can take a good thing and make it last
Desire to prolong a positive experience
Money for the rent
Financial responsibilities for housing
Time that I spent, me and my girlfriend
Reflecting on shared time with a romantic partner
My heart is broken down again
Emotional distress, heartbreak
'cause I blame it on myself
Self-blame for the emotional state
It wouldn't be so bad
Reiteration of a desire to sustain a positive situation
If I can take a good thing and make it last
Hope for the longevity of a good situation
Money in the bank
Financial stability represented by money in the bank
Gas in my tank, me and my girlfriend
Having resources for personal and shared activities
I'm crawling through the crowd again
Navigating challenges in a crowded environment
And I'm lookin' for myself
Searching for personal identity
It makes me mad
Intense frustration due to the desire for happiness
'cause I wanna be happy so bad
Expressing strong longing for happiness
It makes me mad
Reiteration of frustration regarding the pursuit of happiness
'cause I wanna be happy so bad
Continued desire for happiness despite challenges
You don't even care
Perceived lack of concern from someone
Steppin' out
Transitioning or moving forward
Take it in
Observing and absorbing the surroundings
Startin' over again
Embarking on a new beginning
Fallin' out
Experiencing a falling-out or disagreement
Startin' over
Starting anew after a setback
It makes me mad
Reiteration of frustration regarding happiness
'cause I wanna be happy so bad
Intense desire for happiness
It makes me mad
Continued strong desire for happiness
'cause I wanna be happy
Emphasizing the longing for happiness
It makes me mad
Reiteration of frustration regarding happiness
'cause I wanna be happy so bad
Persisting desire for happiness despite challenges
It makes me mad
Continued frustration regarding the pursuit of happiness
'cause I wanna be happy so bad
Unwavering desire for happiness
(It makes me mad)
Reiteration of the emotional impact of the pursuit of happiness
I wanna be happy so bad
Strong expression of the longing for happiness
(It makes me mad)
Reiteration of the intense desire for happiness
I wanna be happy so bad
Continued emphasis on the strong desire for happiness
