Skylar Grey - Room for Happiness

Copied!

Sometimes I wish I never felt
The influence of you
'Cause now I feel the disconnect
Like an open wound

Where you once were, there is a space
That runs as deep as hell
But every morning when I wake
I tell myself

Don't be fooled by your emptiness
There's so much more room for happiness, yeah
Don't be fooled by your emptiness
There's so much more room for happiness

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Sometimes it's worse to have lost
Than to have never had at all
'Cause it's a curse to feel love
And to feel it all dissolve

Where you once were, there is a space
That runs as deep as hell
But every morning when I wake
I tell myself

Don't be fooled by your emptiness
There's so much more room for happiness, yeah
Don't be fooled by your emptiness
There's so much more room for happiness

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Don't be fooled by your emptiness
There's so much more room for happiness, yeah
Don't be fooled by your emptiness
There's so much more room for happiness, yeah

Yeah, yeah

edit bio

Holly Brook Hafermann, better known by her stage name, Skylar Grey, is an American singer/songwriter. She has worked with a countless number of mainstream artists on incredibly successful songs. Some of the most popular of these include Eminem’s “Love The Way You Lie,” Dr. Dre’s “I Need A Doctor,” and Nicki Minaj’s “Bed Of Lies.”

She has released three studio albums: Like Blood Like Honey, Don’t Look Down, and her most recent, Natural Causes, which produced four singles, and a feature from her frequent collaborating partner, Eminem.

Skylar gained 4 Grammy nominations for her work on “Love The Way You Lie” (2011) and “I Need a Doctor” (2012).

In an interview, Skylar explained the origin and meaning behind her artist name, saying:

Gray became my favorite color when I was going through a time in my life that was full of uncertainty, The color gray became a religion to me. Within the ‘undefined’ or ‘gray’ areas lies an infinite amount of possibilities. Believing in this helped me have hope for a positive shift in my future, as I was treading water in a sea of unknowns. Therefore, I started to surround myself with shades of gray. I threw out every piece of clothing in my closet that had color in it, and I moved to the Oregon coast, where the skies are gray and rainy, hence ‘Skylar.’

She even has a tattoo of the word “grey” written across her fingers, which further exemplifies her fondness of the color.
