Why So Serious Lyrics - Alice Merton

[Verse 1] 

When did we forget 

All the crazy things that made us feel so part of it? 

Our youth, so confident 

We played our heartstrings 

Not caring if it ends 

Try to learn to let go of all those things that tie you down 

Get rid of it, the voice inside that tells me that 

I'm scared, yeah, scared as shit 

But I wanna let go of it now 

So someone tell me

[Chorus] 

Why so serious? 

Why are we so serious? 

Oh, why so serious? 

When did we get like this? 

I still remember we weren't grown up like this 

Oooh, oh 

[Verse 2] 

I don't seem to get all the things that are happening 

And I can't make sense of everything that's inside my head 

But I keep on thinking, there's gotta be something said 

Oh, seems we've lost it 

That spark inside that tells us it's all nonsense 

Stop being so cautious 

With every mistake there comes a lesson learned 

So someone tell me

[Chorus] 

Why so serious? (Serious) 

Why are we so serious? 

Oh, why so serious? (Serious) 

When did we get like this? 

I still remember we weren't grown up like this 

Oooh, oh 

Why so serious? (Serious) 

Why are we so serious? 

Oh, why so serious? (Serious) 

Can someone tell me 

Did we forget about 

Living with no regrets? 

Oooh, oh 

[Bridge] 

I wanna live in the now 

I'm not gonna live in the past 

Don't wanna care about what-ifs 

'Cause what if those things don't last? 

And I wanna live with no regrets 

I wanna live in the now 

I'm not gonna live in the past 

Don't wanna care about what-ifs 

'Cause what if those things don't last? 

And I wanna live with no regrets 

So someone tell me 

Why so serious? 

[Chorus] 

Why so serious? (Serious) 

Why are we so serious? 

Oh, why so serious? (Serious) 

When did we get like this? 

I still remember we weren't grown up like this 

Oooh, oh 

Why so serious? (Serious) 

Why are we so serious? 

Oh, why so serious? (Serious) 

Can someone tell me 

Did we forget about 

Living with no regrets?
