When I'm away from you I'm happier than ever Wish I could explain it better I wish it wasn't true, mmh Give me a day or two To think of something clever To write myself a letter To tell me what to do, mm-mm Do you read my interviews Or do you skip my avenue? When you said you were passin' through Was I even on your way? I knew when I asked you to (when I asked you to) Be cool about what I was tellin' you You'd do the opposite of what you said you'd do (what you said you'd do) And I'd end up more afraid Don't say it isn't fair You clearly weren't aware that you made me miserable, ooh So if you really wanna know When I'm away from you (when I'm away from you) I'm happier than ever (I'm happier than ever) Wish I could explain it better (wish I could explain it better) I wish it wasn't true, mmh You called me again, drunk in your Benz Drivin' home under the influence You scared me to death but I'm wastin' my breath 'Cause you only listen to your fuckin' friends I don't relate to you I don't relate to you, no 'Cause I'd never treat me this shitty You made me hate this city And I don't talk shit about you on the internet Never told anyone anything bad 'Cause that shit's embarrassing, you were my everything And all that you did was make me fuckin' sad So don't waste the time I don't have And don't try to make me feel bad I could talk about every time that you showed up on time But I'd have an empty line 'cause you never did Never paid any mind to my mother or friends, so I Shut them all out for you 'cause I was a kid You ruined everything good Always said you were misunderstood Made all my moments your own Just fuckin' leave me alone
i want to sing this with my vocal coach but i didnt know if the second part would sound good with the piano (she accompanies me with piano only) but i will show her this
1st half was like a 50s static radio classic! 2nd half sounds like a balled in a hall xx it’s beautiful! Xx you can definitely hear the emotions more!!x Love it! X 💞☺️
Beautiful, Love it this version. this album is a masterpiece. Editing.... A year later and still my favorite version.. it's crazy how you feel every emotion in the lyrics.

When I'm away from you
I'm happier than ever
Wish I could explain it better
I wish it wasn't true, mmh
Give me a day or two
To think of something clever
To write myself a letter
To tell me what to do, mm-mm
Do you read my interviews
Or do you skip my avenue?
When you said you were passin' through
Was I even on your way?
I knew when I asked you to (when I asked you to)
Be cool about what I was tellin' you
You'd do the opposite of what you said you'd do (what you said you'd do)
And I'd end up more afraid
Don't say it isn't fair
You clearly weren't aware that you made me miserable, ooh
So if you really wanna know
When I'm away from you (when I'm away from you)
I'm happier than ever (I'm happier than ever)
Wish I could explain it better (wish I could explain it better)
I wish it wasn't true, mmh
You called me again, drunk in your Benz
Drivin' home under the influence
You scared me to death but I'm wastin' my breath
'Cause you only listen to your fuckin' friends
I don't relate to you
I don't relate to you, no
'Cause I'd never treat me this shitty
You made me hate this city
And I don't talk shit about you on the internet
Never told anyone anything bad
'Cause that shit's embarrassing, you were my everything
And all that you did was make me fuckin' sad
So don't waste the time I don't have
And don't try to make me feel bad
I could talk about every time that you showed up on time
But I'd have an empty line 'cause you never did
Never paid any mind to my mother or friends, so I
Shut them all out for you 'cause I was a kid
You ruined everything good
Always said you were misunderstood
Made all my moments your own
Just fuckin' leave me alone
i want to sing this with my vocal coach but i didnt know if the second part would sound good with the piano (she accompanies me with piano only) but i will show her this
I want this on my funeral thank you

This song makes me sad and empowered at the same time

1st half was like a 50s static radio classic! 2nd half sounds like a balled in a hall xx it’s beautiful! Xx you can definitely hear the emotions more!!x

You scared me to death, but I'm wasting my breath
'Cause you only listen to your fucking friends

Shut 'em all out for you 'cause I was a kid
You ruined everything good
Always said you were misunderstood
Made all my moments your own
Just fucking leave me alone
