This song has solidified itself in my heart as my absolute favourite Trousdale song. And everyone I show it too always says that it's a sad song (which is usually very typical of my tastes). But the thing is I've never seen this as a sad song. And I think a large reason for that fact has to do with this video. It's a song not of loss but of realization and being found, and this video has such amazing energy of friendship and of loving life that it makes the song that much more warm and special to me.
Just wanted to say I came across your songs by accident, but you're really fucking good, and this is coming from a guy who grew up listening to heavy metal and punk rock. I wish you girls nothing but the best and the successful future you deserve. :)
I bought a ticket to the movies for just me I don't want you around when I'm getting busy I don't want you around I don't want you around And I took a bottle of the whisky you gave me I drink it all in the night so I can't see it empty I don't want it around I don't want you around 'Cause you don't make me happy anymore You don't make me happy anymore You make me miss who I was before You don't make me You don't make me happy anymore, ooh-ooh You don't make me You don't make me happy anymore, ooh-ooh When I was with you I was only lonely Maybe you were in love, but you never loved me No, you never loved me (you never loved, never really loved) And you don't make me happy anymore You don't make me happy anymore You make me miss who I was before You don't make me You don't make me happy anymore, ooh-ooh (you don't, you don't, you don't) You don't make me You don't make me happy anymore, ooh-ooh (no, no) Yeah (Make me happy) Don't know what happened (You don't make me) No, you don't I heard you playing with the band in Malibu You called me out of nowhere and told me I should come through (That I should come through) And I would, but I don't really want to You don't make me happy anymore (you don't make me) You don't make me happy anymore (don't make me) You make me miss who I was before (yeah) You don't make me (you don't, you don't) You don't make me happy anymore, ooh-ooh (you don't, you don't) You don't make me You don't make me happy anymore, ooh-ooh (ah) You don't make me You don't make me happy anymore (you don't make me happy anymore)

This song was in my most played songs in 2022, together with Runaway by Aurora. I never realised how unhappy I've been..... Thanks for keeping me through the dark days
