Sarah Kathryn Peck - Sadness Lyrics

Why won't you meet me in the middle
And try to find a common ground
And I swear my hearts not brittle
But you broke it when you let it hit the ground
And I never met somebody
Who treats me so unkindly
But you happened

Oh sadness
It happens
Sometimes you have to break to grow
Oh sadness
It happens
But look at the harvest it sows
Oh sadness

Why won't you stay around
Why won't you stick around to hear me out
And some things that were spoken
Have come to leave me broken
Chewed me up again and spit me out

Oh sadness
It happens
Sometimes you have to break to grow
Oh sadness
It happens
But look at the harvest it sows
Oh sadness

And just because I cry
Doesn't mean that I'm weak
Or any less
Oh like a phoenix
We gain our strength
And rise up from the ash

Oh sadness
It happens
Sometimes you have to break to grow
Oh sadness
It happens
But look at the harvest it sowed
Oh sadness
