Lately, I've been, I've been thinkingI want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
"Happier" is a song that wants to convey the message that the bond between a pet and human is unbreakable. The song was written by Bastille, an English pop rock band. The amount of emotion the listeners could feel in the lyrics was intense. As they listen to the song more, it can remind them of so many things that they have been through in their lives. Bastille wants to make this music to embrace the pain people feel when losing someone close to them and show the cycle of life. Life keeps going. We need to stay strong to live "happier" every day.
The story of a little girl and her pet dog in "Happier"
There is a birthday party being held. A shy and sensitive girl is nervous until she gets her birthday present: a dog, a Golden Retriever puppy. As the girl grows up and becomes a teenager, she faces high school hardships, but her furry friend is always there for her. Years pass, and the dog becomes old and ill. The girl is forced to say goodbye when her dog gets sick and is ultimately put to sleep.
After many years, the girl is married and becomes a grown woman with a daughter of her own. The cycle continues: her daughter gets happy when her grandfather gifts her a Golden Retriever puppy for her birthday, and it reminds the girl of her dog that passed away.
Lyrics:
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
When the morning comes When we see what we've become In the cold light of day we're a flame in the wind Not the fire that we've begun Every argument, every word we can't take back 'Cause with the all that has happened I think that we both know the way that this story ends
Then only for a minute I want to change my mind 'Cause this just don't feel right to me I wanna raise your spirits I want to see you smile but Know that means I'll have to leave
Know that means I'll have to leave Lately, I've been, I've been thinking I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
When the evening falls And I'm left there with my thoughts And the image of you being with someone else Well, that's eating me up inside But we run our course, we pretend that we're okay Now if we jump together at least we can swim Far away from the wreck we made
Then only for a minute I want to change my mind 'Cause this just don't feel right to me I wanna raise your spirits I want to see you smile but Know that means I'll have to leave
Know that means I'll have to leave Lately, I've been, I've been thinking I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
So I'll go, I'll go I will go, go, go So I'll go, I'll go I will go, go, go
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier Even though I might not like this I think that you'll be happier, I want you to be happier
Then only for a minute (only for a minute) I want to change my mind 'Cause this just don't feel right to me I wanna raise your spirits I want to see you smile but Know that means I'll have to leave
Know that means I'll have to leave Lately, I've been, I've been thinking I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
So I'll go, I'll go I will go, go, go
