Sad Story Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Got nothin' to say anymore
There's nothin' new, it's all been done before
Not looking to settle the scores
So please let me be
Thought I'd be the one you'd adore
I always thought I would be so much more
Want something that I can't afford
So please let me be
Please let me be

[Chorus]
This is the end of a really sad story
Don't feel bad for me
I started out alone and in the end that's where I'll be
Like the start of a really sad story
It don't live happily
I started out alone and in the end that's where I'll be

[Verse 2]
Got nothin' to say anymore
Originality went out that door
Not finding what I'm lookin' for
So please let me be
Please let me be
[Chorus]
This is the end of a really sad story
Don't feel bad for me
I started out alone and in the end that's where I'll be
Like the start of a really sad story
It don't live happily
I started out alone and in the end that's where I'll be

[Bridge]
I'll walk alone
I'll walk alone

[Verse 3]
Got nothin' to say anymore
There's nothin' new, it's all been done before
Not looking to settle the scores
So please let me be
Thought I'd be the one you'd adore
I always thought I would be so much more
Now I'm all alone in this war
So please let me be
Please let me be

[Chorus]
This is the end of a really sad story
Don't feel bad for me
I started out alone and in the end that's where I'll be
Like the start of a really sad story
It don't live happily
I started out alone and in the end that's where I'll be
That's where I'll be

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
