Cover art for Sappy lyrics by Say Anything

wow. I felt exactly this way when I was 16. I don't think its a break up song though. I think its a song about a girl he just adores, he can't stand it anymore. Everyone has those people in their lives at some point. He wants to stop "but she looks so good today And she is so alive". He makes the mistake of telling her and she got freaked out and doesn't talk to him anymore, he's alone.

Now, he wishes "he'd never even fallen for her" that way they could still be friends because being friends or even not knowing each other is better than having her know what a dope he is. If he never would have tried to be with her there would still be hope that they could be. But there isn't and he can't stand it. But he's so over-romantic, sappy, and hopeless for this girl he still believes there is hope (check the last line). However, he knows there is no hope, we know there’s no hope but he loves this girl. There’s no easy answer, if there even is one.

I agree w/ghotistix it sounds like a watered down Konstantine, just a little different and thanks for putting it up. great song.

Why are you attracted to people that you know you'll never be with? You just are. its so frustrating especially for 16 year olds. The raw emotion in Max's voice is so beautiful and real you just want to cry.

Theres no fancy stuff in this song. Its just real raw emotion that only 16 year olds can capture.
