Its Not My Fault I'm Happy Lyrics - Gossamer (2 Lp /1 Cd) - Passion Pit

Sorry I couldn't be there, I was tied to a rocking chair 

I was beat down to a pulp rocking back and forth somewhere 

If you knew, if you saw, you'd have said it was the final straw 

That my life was bound and tethered on a porch by the shore 

But there is no no no no 

Easy way to tell them so, the things you know 

And run run run run 

Run they say, they think they know exactly so 

It's not right, it's not right 

How am I the only one who sees us fight? 

What are we? Who are they? 

Who says those bastards don't deserve to pay? 

Well it's enough, it's just enough 'cause we don't stand a chance 

So long you stay around, you're just another song and dance 

It's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair 

Still I'm the only one who seems to care 

It's funny that being funny makes you feel like up and running 

When your past lingers like rain clouds, casting shadows below 

I could live with so many burns, I take all your hope and yearning 

But there's no one I want to take me for that petty little rose 

I used to glow glow glow glow 

Once I had a love to show, a love they know 

They're slow slow slow slow 

So slow that they never know where I go 

It's not right, it's not right 

How am I the only one who sees us fight? 

What are we? Who are they? 

Who says those bastards don't deserve to pay? 

Well it's enough, it's just enough 'cause we don't stand a chance 

So long you stay around, you're just another song and dance 

It's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair 

Still I'm the only one who seems to care 

I know that it's only something 

I'm just working with what I've been given 

It's not my fault, I'm happy 

Don't call me crazy, I'm happy 

It's not right, it's not right 

How am I the only one who sees us fight? 

What are we? Who are they? 

Who says those bastards don't deserve to pay? 

Well it's enough, it's just enough 'cause we don't stand a chance 

So long you stay around, you're just another song and dance 

It's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair 

Still I'm the only one who seems to care
