Lyrics:

No, I don't wanna be sad
I don't wanna be sad, sad, sad, no more
It's been twenty-eight days since I've seen the sunshine
'Cause I just can't seem to lift this cloud away
I swear all the tears I've cried could fill an ocean
I've been swimming in the sea of misery
I can't find the strength to leave this bed
I'm locked up in my cuckoo head
I feel so low and I can't let go
I've got all the symptoms, all the signs
I tell my friends I'll be just fine
But truth be told
It's getting old
No, I don't wanna be sad
I don't wanna be sad, sad, sad, no more
(No, no, no)
And I know, some days will be bad
But I don't wanna be sad, sad, sad, no more
I've tried every pill the doctor will prescribe me
(I've tried, ooh, ooh, ooh)
And I've put myself through weeks of therapy
(Weeks of therapy)
I've tried meditation, yoga and pilates
(I've tried, ooh, ooh, ooh)
It's like happiness just wasn't meant for me
(Wasn't meant for me)
But I'm through, I'm done, I've had enough
I'll ditch this funk, I tell you what
Just watch me now
'Cause I won't back down
I've got a badass personality
So I just need to set it free
It starts today, I'm on my way
No, I don't wanna be sad
I don't wanna be sad, sad, sad, no more
(No, no, no)
And I know, some days will be bad
But I don't wanna be sad, sad, sad, no more
I don't wanna be sad
(Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, no, no, no)
I don't wanna be sad
(Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, no, no, no)
I don't wanna be sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad
No, I don't wanna be sad
I don't wanna be sad, sad, sad, no more
And I know, some days will be bad
But I don't wanna be sad, sad, sad, no more
(Woo)
No, I don't wanna be sad
I don't wanna be sad, sad, sad, no more
(No, no, no)
And I know, some days will be bad
But I don't wanna be sad, sad, sad, no more
(Woo)
I don't wanna be
(No, no, no)
I don't wanna be sad, sad, sad, no more
(Woo)
I don't wanna be
(No, no, no)
I don't wanna be sad, sad, sad, no more

THANK YOU, SIMPLE PLAN! I saw the song title and thought it was going to be a deep, powerful song about battling depression, which seemed perfect since I'm having a bad depression day today. As soon as the song began, however, I realized my expectation wasn't true. Soon, though, I began moving to the beat and grinning at some of the lyrics and I suddenly found myself in a much better mood. So even though the song wasn't what I thought it would be, it was exactly what I needed to hear.

[CodyTheHusky]

I love how this song is basically saying in a happy, upbeat way "fuck off Depression, I'm sick of your shit!" This is honestly my ultimate anthem :D

[Priorities]

Finally an upbeat song for all us depressed people

[Narutogal]

I see so many comments about how they should write songs like the ones in their first two albums, but they can't. They don't have the same inspiration and so many things have changed. You got to remember these guys are now in their mid 30s and have families. When they wrote songs like I'm Just a Kid and Perfect they described their lives back then, but now they have to write songs that fit their lives now.

[zerosynyster]

This is straight up a Lion King's song. I could imagine the frikin' rinos dancing and shit.

[shaunmattice]

Boy, the guys are really trying some new sounds. I like it.

[ZeroGoofs]

i don't get how people say this doesn't have a message. like its literally a song about not wanting to be sad and fighting depression/sadness and showing people how rad you really are!

[IsisTrindade]

I'm feeling like a teenager again. So glad to have this band in my life for 10 years. Can't wait for the whole album ♡

[xxxmybullet]

I approve of this! Now I'm all excited to see what the music video would turn out like (I have the whole 50s Beach boy image in my mind the whole time I listened to this) teehehehehe Xx

[thethundersauce]

Fourteen years ago your songs kept me above water. Although your sound is changing it still keeps me floating.

[RebornMangaHeart]

I actually love this song to death ... Listening to it at first it doesn't sound all that emotional but read the lyrics or sing it yourself and it's pretty damn meaningful. The band didn't change, the evolved

[janethhdez]

I really love Pierre's voice😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️

[ThePurpleSheep]

1 year today since this came out! I remember being so happy when I first listened it! Ahh SP, the feelings you give me,

[rlink]

I don't get why this song is getting so much hate. I have chronic depression, and I love how this song explains the frustrations of just being sad all the time in an upbeat way.

[I Don't Wanna Be Sad]
No, I don't wanna be sad

I don't wanna be sad sad sad no more

It's been 28 days since I've seen the sunshine

Cause I just can't seem to lift this cloud away

I swear all the tears
I've cried could fill an ocean

I've been swimming in a sea of misery I can't find the strength to leave this bed

I'm locked up in my cuckoo head

I feel so low
And I can't let go

I've got all the symptoms all the signs

I tell my friends
I'll be just fine
But truth be told It's getting old

No, I don't wanna be sad
I don't wanna be sad sad sad no more
And I know, some days will be bad
But I don't wanna be sad sad sad no more

I've tried every pill the doctor will prescribe me

And I've put myself through weeks of therapy

(Weeks of therapy)

I've tried meditation yoga and pilates
It's like happiness just wasn't meant for me

(Wasn't meant for me)

Bu't I'm through,
I'm done,
I've had enough
I'll ditch this funk
I tell you what Just watch me now
Cause I won't back down

I've got a bad ass personality

So I just need to set it free It starts today

I'm on my way

No, I don't wanna be sad
I don't wanna be sad sad sad no more
And I know, somedays will be bad

But I don't wanna be sad sad sad no more
Oh oh oh oh No no no
I don't wanna be sad
Oh oh oh oh No no no
I don't wanna be sad
Oh oh oh oh No no no

I don't wanna be sad, sad Sad, sad, sad, sad

No, I don't wanna be sad I don't wanna be sad sad sad no more

[Tudorr]

It's so weird. I see a ton of comments of people disliking this song and most new ones, im here loving these new ones, not so much the old ones.

[nayiri]

i literally grew up listening to simple plan they got me through alot but this is actually pretty good cuz its not a sad depressing ballad its uplifting say what u want but pop is there for a reason its supposed to be catchy and fun and make you feel good

[eds]

This is probably their best song yet. It just makes you want to dance no matter where!

[AnthonyPero]

Somehow Simple Plan manages to release a song and it directly relates to my life in every single way possible. How? I literally was like, wow this song is so much what I just went through, and was thinking, plus yoga, and meditation, etc, then they sing that too.

I'm not opposed to them stalking my life as this song just made me feel a million times better. Thanks guys :)

[ROBHAVOC]

YES!!!! Catchiest song by them by far!!
