[Verse 1]
Sad girl with a smile on her face
She wants a sad boy to fill in the spaces
Sad girl's got a temper to match
The bad habit she has
Of smoking cheap cigarettes

[Verse 2]
Sad girl wishes she were an island
Where everything works in all-perfect timing
Now her kiss is just a handshake
And her heart is just an earthquake

[Chorus]
Sad girl says “My heart can't stand me
What does it take to make me happy?
I'm so afraid nobody wants to brave this world
With a sad, sad girl”

[Verse 3]
Sad girl with a handicapped dream, thinking
Growing up isn't all that it seems
A cold shower in December
Another night you don't remember

[Verse 4]
Sad girl driving all of these years
She never left home 'cause she wasn't in gear
The sad truth is a hard thing to hear
Through all the high expectations
They all seem to make her so jealous

[Chorus]
Sad girl says “My heart can't stand me
What does it take to make me happy?
I'm so afraid nobody wants to brave this world
With a sad, sad girl”

[Chorus]
Sad girl says “My heart can't stand me
What does it take to make me happy?
I'm so afraid nobody wants to brave this world
With a sad, sad girl”

[Outro]
Sad, sad girl you make me happy
And I’ll be yours if you’ll just have me
I’ve been waiting forever to brave this world
With a sad, sad girl
