Sweat out sadness
Sometimes when you walk in sadness,
It enters through your skin.
Even if you try to hide it,
Without still meets within.
It makes you unattractive
To those who know you none.
Because who wants to be around
A cloud that blocks the sun?
Chorus:
You’ve got to sweat out sadness.
Make sure it all gets out.
It’s no good in your system.
It’s not what you’re about.
We all want to be happy.
And that’s a solid fact.
And when we’re not, it’s just because
We’re the opposite of that.
So when dreams emerge unmet …
When curved balls cross your sky …
When shock is of the nasty kind …
When your truth turns out a lie …
Chorus:
You’ve got to sweat out sadness.
Make sure it all gets out.
It’s no good in your system.
It’s not what you’re about.
Remember that it happens
To all of us, sometimes …
That even when we are alone,
We’re not, you know … it binds.
It is inversely proportional,
To what we want the most.
The fact that we can feel it
Shows scope for a joy-filled host.
Chorus:
You’ve got to sweat out sadness.
Make sure it all gets out.
It’s no good in your system.
It’s not what you’re about.
So reconstruct your dreams …
Let curved balls fall asunder …
Let knowledge temper all surprise …
Let lies be left to wander …
Sometimes it takes so awfully long,
To see it as a favour.
But that it is, just let it be …
Experience is your saviour.
Chorus:
You’ve got to sweat out sadness.
Make sure it all gets out.
It’s no good in your system.
It’s not what you’re about.
