Lyrics
[Guitar Intro]
[Verse 1]
I wake up late, then nap again, my sleep's a total mess,
My room's a cave, my screen's ablaze, I live in the glow, no less.
I scroll and tweet, in my retreat, where sunlight fears to tread,
My goals so vague, they're like a plague, just buzzing 'round my head.
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm diving deep in the sea of gloom,
Where happiness is just a speck of doom.
I chase it down, it slips away,
But I'll rock this misery every single day!
[Verse 2]
I sit so still, I'm like a hill, that's never known a breeze,
My muscles ache, for goodness' sake, I need some exercise, please!
I dwell on rage, it's all the rage, to fuel my daily fire,
But it burns me out, without a doubt, and the flames just get higher.
[Chorus]
Yeah, I'm surfing high on a wave of woe,
Where smiles crash and the sad winds blow.
I grab at joy, it fades to gray,
But I'll rock this misery in my own way!
[Verse 3]
I seek delight, with all my might, but it's a sneaky ghost,
The more I try, the more it's shy, it's like I'm chasing toast.
So here's the deal, I've got to feel, the beat of my own drum,
Flip the script, get my ship, out of this glum chum slum.
Flip the script, get my ship, out of this glum chum slum.
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm diving deep in the sea of gloom,
Where happiness is just a speck of doom.
I chase it down, it slips away,
But I'll rock this misery every single day!
[Verse 4]
My ship has sunk, under all this junk, while I hide in bed,
With every snooze, I seem to choose, a day that's dull and dead.
But in this song, we'll prove wrong, the ways that lead to sorrow,
We'll flip the frown, bring the house down, and rock a bright tomorrow!
[Guitar Interlude]
[Chorus]
Yeah, I'm surfing high on a wave of woe,
Where smiles crash and the sad winds blow.
I grab at joy, it fades to gray,
But I'll rock this misery in my own way!
[Verse 5]
Impulses come, and I just run, no thought of where they lead,
I'm chasing tails, and epic fails, it's like a guaranteed.
But screens at night, they steal the light, and mess with sleepy heads,
We'll set goals high, kiss sleep goodbye, and never leave our beds.
