"Yours Truly." lyrics

"Yours Truly."

Don't you wanna be glad?

Not many folk are big fans of yours truly
And I don't have a single reason they should be
So before you go saying that you love me
Make sure I'm the one that you're needing
Woke up at 4 AM again last morning
Oh, wait, my bad, that's just every morning
Gotta get right back to work here shortly
Maybe that's why I'm so lonely

'Cause don't you wanna be glad
Don't you wanna be so glad
Glad that you've been lying
Spending every single night alone
(Don't you wanna be)
Don't you wanna be glad
Don't you wanna be so glad
Glad that you've forgotten
All these little fights we used to throw
(Don't you wanna be)

If you're bored then you're boring, I'm boring at best
So gimme some liquor and I'll stop to rest
These brain cells from pumping my blood
Then maybe I won't be depressed
Then these lungs will quit breathing and I'll become a corpse
'Cause a love that is lost is true love at its source
Believe when you say that we're done
Forgive me for hiding remorse

'Cause don't you wanna be glad
Don't you wanna be so glad
Glad that you've been lying
Spending every single night alone
(Don't you wanna be)
Don't you wanna be glad
Don't you wanna be so glad
Glad that you've forgotten
All these little fights we used to throw
(Don't you wanna be)

Don't you
Ah, don't you
Don't you wanna be glad?
Don't you
Ah, don't you
Don't you wanna be glad?

'Cause don't you wanna be glad
Don't you wanna be so glad
Glad that you've been lying
Spending every single night alone
(Don't you wanna be)
Don't you wanna be glad
Don't you wanna be so glad
Glad that you've forgotten
All these little fights we used to throw
(Don't you wanna be)

The music video was directed by Lee Levin.
Lead vocalist Skyler McKee said, "'Yours Truly.' is about my personal pursuit of happiness. I am singing to myself, like, 'Hey, Sky, you literally pushed out bad relationships and are slowly forgetting the past trauma, why are you still not happy?' I learned that there is more to emotional growth than just cutting off toxic people, it takes healing those wounds in order to be genuinely glad."
