I took a pill in Ibiza
To show Avicii I was cool
And when I finally got sober, felt 10 years older
But fuck it, it was something to doI'm living out in LA
I drive a sports car just to prove
I'm a real big baller 'cause I made a million dollars
And I spend it on girls and shoesBut you don't wanna be high like me
Never really knowing why like me
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all aloneYou don't wanna ride the bus like this
Never knowing who to trust like this
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
Stuck up on that stage singing
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songsI'm just a singer who already blew his shot
I get along with old timers
'Cause my name's a reminder of a pop song people forgot
And I can't keep a girl, no'Cause as soon as the sun comes up
I cut 'em all loose and work's my excuse
But the truth is I can't open upBut you don't wanna be high like me
Never really knowing why like me
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all aloneYou don't wanna ride the bus like this
Never knowing who to trust like this
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
Stuck up on that stage singing
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songsI took a plane to my hometown
I brought my pride and my guitar
All my friends are all gone, but there's manicured lawns
And the people still think I'm a starI walked around downtown
I met some fans on Lafayette
They said: "tell us how to make it 'cause we're getting real impatient"
So I looked 'em in the eye and saidBut you don't wanna be high like me
Never really knowing why like me
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all aloneYou don't wanna ride the bus like this
Never knowing who to trust like this
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
Stuck up on that stage singingAll that I know are sad songs, sad songs
Darling, all that I know are sad songs, sad songs
