I’ll be happy when Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
The singer feels lonely in a city that doesn’t feel like home. They think they’ll be happy once they gain more freedom, like getting a driver’s license and escaping on long drives just to feel alive. They also long for real friendships—people who accept them for who they are, rather than just using them for their own needs. There’s hope that once these things fall into place, they will finally feel okay, but deep down, there’s uncertainty about whether happiness really works that way.

[Chorus]
Doubt starts creeping in. The singer wonders if they’ve waited too long for happiness and if they’re too broken to be fixed. What if there’s no way to escape these feelings? The excitement and distractions in life eventually wear off, and when they do, the singer feels like they are disappearing, fading away into nothing.

[Verse 2]
Happiness still feels out of reach. The singer wants to smile without faking it or using it as a defense mechanism. They wish they could fit in naturally, instead of forcing themselves to belong. They also long for people who genuinely care when they ask, “How are you?” But deep down, there’s a growing fear that their life doesn’t truly belong to them, that they have no real control over it.

[Chorus]
The same doubts return, but this time, there’s more desperation. What if they’ve already lost their chance to find happiness? What if they’re stuck feeling this way forever? As the initial distractions and hopes fade, they feel themselves slipping away even more, afraid of completely losing themselves to sadness and emptiness.

[Outro]
The singer accepts a painful possibility—that they might always be like this. They see themselves as a “buzzkill,” someone who brings down the mood, unable to escape their sadness. Repeating this line over and over shows a feeling of being trapped in this identity, as if they’ve given up on change.
