lyrics

So go now,
If you're happy
'Cause you should be
So go
Happy
Like I should be
Like I can be
I know
Picture perfect comfort and safety
Isn't what made me need you
It sounds shallow to say
It sounds shallow to say
It sounds shallow...
'Cause the honest
honest captain
While upstanding
Says no, no, no
That my loss is
Salutary
And par for the course
And I'm calm and caged again
My friend, my companion
Though my respect you've won
I'm done
And it sounds shallow to say
It sounds shallow to say
It sounds shallow to say
So go now
And be happy
'Cause it's all I want
Happy
Like I try to be
It's not shallow
