This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Someone once told me that you have to choose
What you win or lose
You can't have everything
Don't you take chances
Might feel the pain
Don't you love in vain
'Cause love won't set you free
I can't stand by the side
And watch this life pass me by
So unhappy
But safe as could be
So what if it hurts me?
So what if I break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear my sound
Don't care about all the pain in front of me
'Cause I'm just trying to be happy, yeah
Just wanna be happy, yeah
Holding on tightly
Just can't let it go
Just trying to play my role
Slowly disappear, oh
Well all these days, they feel like they're the same
Just different faces, different names
Get me out of here
But I can't stand by your side, oh no
And watch this life pass me by, pass me by
So what if it hurts me?
So what if I break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear my sound
Don't care about all the pain in front of me
'Cause I'm just trying to be happy, oh, happy, oh
So any turns that I can't see,
Like I'm a stranger on this road
But don't say victim
Don't say anything
So what if it hurts me?
So what if I break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear my sound
Don't care about all the pain in front of me
I just wanna be happy
Oh, yeah, happy, oh, happy
I just wanna be, oh
I just wanna be happy
Oh, happy
What you win or lose
You can't have everything
Don't you take chances
Might feel the pain
Don't you love in vain
'Cause love won't set you free
I can't stand by the side
And watch this life pass me by
So unhappy
But safe as could be
So what if it hurts me?
So what if I break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear my sound
Don't care about all the pain in front of me
'Cause I'm just trying to be happy, yeah
Just wanna be happy, yeah
Holding on tightly
Just can't let it go
Just trying to play my role
Slowly disappear, oh
Well all these days, they feel like they're the same
Just different faces, different names
Get me out of here
But I can't stand by your side, oh no
And watch this life pass me by, pass me by
So what if it hurts me?
So what if I break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear my sound
Don't care about all the pain in front of me
'Cause I'm just trying to be happy, oh, happy, oh
So any turns that I can't see,
Like I'm a stranger on this road
But don't say victim
Don't say anything
So what if it hurts me?
So what if I break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear my sound
Don't care about all the pain in front of me
I just wanna be happy
Oh, yeah, happy, oh, happy
I just wanna be, oh
I just wanna be happy
Oh, happy

Holiday

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

This song is about exactly what it says. It is kind of a selfish song, she is just trying to be happy regardless of anyone else. It is all about the person singing it. We all fell like this at some point in our lives, dont give a care about anyone else but ourselves. Yes this is a beautiful song
i agree. i watched the music video and think its about a girl who is with a guy who is with someone else. shes telling him at the end, "dont say victim, dont say anything," like she doesnt care what he has to say about the situation, she just wants to be happy. im kind of stricken... like, is he leaving her, or is she staying with him, even though hes involved? she keeps saying even if it hurts her, even if it means shell have a breakdown, even if it means that there will be pain from others that she causes, she just wants to do what she thinks will make her happy.<br /> <br /> i love the song though. it is tres belle. she sounds amazing in it...
