Are you happy now?

(S. Veríssimo)

Sometimes people hurt you. Sometimes those people are the ones closest to you. Sometimes they are the ones that swore they would never be the cause of your tears. And yet they are; they hurt you, they destroy you. These lyrics are about that.

I was never perfect.
Who is, anyway?
But being myself wasn’t enough.
You had to make me some type of way.

You picked me up and changed me, 
Like I was made of clay.
Moulded me into what you thought was enough
To make it worth my stay.

But hey, I let you, didn’t I?
Are you happy now?
Am I perfect now?

A lost identity later,
You tossed me on the side.
Did your definition of perfect change?
Was my truth too hard to hide?

I lost myself trying to love you,
Gained nothing in return.
My poor heart is sick and bruised,
I don’t think I’ll ever get used.

But hey, I let you, didn’t I?
Are you happy now?
And I’m not even perfect now.

Why did you have to lie?
Are you with her now?
You didn’t even say goodbye.

Now I’m nothing.
A muted version of what I used to be.
You did this to me.
You did this to me.

Are you happy now?
