Upside

I'm sorry I didn't pick up the phone

You know I've never been the best at setting boundaries

And you know I could never tell you no

And when I'm gone I'm still the same as how you found me

'Cause I see the good in the bad ones

And I see the smile in the mad ones

And I'm alright being the last one out (oh)

'Cause if time is money, I'm not that expensive

I'm at this party, but kind of regret it now

And now I'm standing in the corner wondering how

Tell me, tell me

Do you know why

It's so easy, easy

For me to give away all my time? (oh)

Tell me, tell me

Do you know why

I can't please me, please me

When I can't see nothing but the upside?

I'm sorry I left without goodbye

You know it's easier to hide than fake emotions

And you can try to ask me how or why

But maybe I'm too scared to deal with that explosion (yeah)

'Cause I see the good in the bad ones

And I see the smile in the mad ones

And I'm alright being the last one out (oh)

'Cause if time is money, I'm not that expensive

I'm at this party, but kind of regret it now (really, really regret it)

And now I'm standing in the corner wondering how

Tell me, tell me

Do you know why

It's so easy, easy

For me to give away all my time? (oh)

Tell me, tell me

Do you know why

I can't please me, please me

When I can't see nothing but the upside?

You pick me, I'll do it if you need

But one day I'll be doin' it for me, yeah

You pick me, I'll do it if you need

When I can't see nothing but the upside

You pick me, I'll do it if you need

But one day I'll be doin' it for me, yeah

You pick me, I'll do it if you need

When I can't see nothing but the upside

(That number one rule for good mental health, don't bottle up your emotions, has helped him through many a tough spot. Respecting yourself sounds easy, doesn't it?)

'Cause if time is money, I'm not that expensive

I'm at this party, but kind of regret it now

But now, thank God, I'm thinking out loud

Tell me, tell me

Do you know why

It's so easy, easy

For me to give away all my time? (oh)

Tell me, tell me

Do you know why

I can't please me, please me

When I can't see nothing but the upside?

You pick me, I'll do it if you need

But one day I'll be doin' it for me, yeah

You pick me, I'll do it if you need

When I can't see nothing but the upside

You pick me, I'll do it if you need

But one day I'll be doin' it for me, yeah

You pick me, I'll do it if you need

When I can't see nothing but the upside
