Why is this so upbeat, while having lyrics that rip out my soul?

I still firmly believe this is one of the best songs from kenny.
I'm not a musician but the way the song builds up as it goes on it's fucking epic, along with the art that's prob my favorite single cover so far.

Nihilism’s a hell of a drug
It certainly makes good pop punk

not gonna lie, i catch myself singing/humming along to this one. the melody and words just stick to me, very ear-wormy for sure. another EBOCK hit from kenny, definitely going places!

I just found out something. During the pre-bridge part, the lines "Nothing, has been changed" also rhymes with "Let's go, don't wait" from First Date by Blink-182

nothing (pun unintended but i have a feeling someone would bring it up otherwise) matches resonating with kennyoung songs in the middle of the night and crying until i inevitably fall asleep

I've been slowly delving into your original music but I swear, I can't listen to more than one or two before taking a break because I'm afraid that if I don't I'll break down in tears

Another to my list of favorites. I love this–

I don't know what you guys think and I don't know if you know the movie but this song has so strong Lemonade Mouth vibes that it is bringing me tears of joy and nostagia in my eyes. Kenny you created a masterpiece here and I think I can say that I'll always love your songs

[Verse 1]
This isn't what I've wanted, no
I'm standing with my broken feelings
I've never felt like this before
This isn't what I've waited for
Now I can't even breath I'm sinking
I've never wanted to be here
[Pre-Chorus]
It's true,
I'm getting used to hating myself
I know
That you will never know that I need help
That's it
I don't want to lose it anymore
Whoa-OwO
And here's what I'll say
[Chorus]
I believe, I believe
I believe, I believe in nothing
All I see is a lie
I'm a lie and completely nothing
You never know, never know
You never know; No, you don't know nothing - about me
[Verse 2]
If this is what you wanted, oh
When I'm feeling so alone
I'd never be the same
No, I'd never be the same
'Cause I never thought I could be
Alone, there's nothing for me
I can't believe that I'm lost
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I feel
Like I can't even make it myself
I know
But every time you make me insecure
I blame
And I don't want to trust you anymore
Whoa-OwO
So here's what I'll say
[Chorus]
I believe, I believe
I believe, I believe in nothing
All I see is a lie
I'm a lie and completely nothing
You never know, never know
You never know; No, you don't know nothing - about me
[Bridge]
Nothing - has been - changed
And I don't feel the same
When we're alone
Calling - your name
At the place we used to stay
But now we're gone
[Chorus] (2x)
I believe, I believe
I believe, I believe in nothing
All I see is a lie
I'm a lie and completely nothing
You never know, never know
You never know; No, you don't know nothing - about me
