“I put on a happy face, cuz no one likes misery.”
On June 4th, the sixth installment of my 12 songs in 12 months project enters the world. Created in the tradition of the beloved European “Summer Hit” the upbeat, uplifting pop music serves as a mask that hides the dark and sinister tone bubbling underneath. It is a squeaky clean ode to misery, that honestly depicts my lifelong battle with depression.
For this single, I’ve again enlisted the guitar talents of Sebastian Svalland (ex-LINDEMANN, PAIN & Letters from the Colony), and teamed up with Jeremy Dawson (Shiny Toy Guns, MXMS) to create a special rendition of the title track. The “Sad Face” version musically reflects the dour emotional tone of the lyrics. It is not a remix, it is a complete reimagining of the song from the ground up.
This Summer, let’s all put on our Happy Faces.

Guess what?
I’m fucked
Living my life like I know what’s up
It’s straight up
Made up
Facade is about to fall
Serotonin
Serotonin
Hit me hard
Cuz I’m feelin’ nothin'
Can’t stop
Til I drop
I know I’m
I’m killing myself tonight
So I put on a happy face
And tell the world I’m okay
So I put on a happy face
This sugar is saccharine
So I put on a happy face
I smile and lie through my teeth
So I put on a happy face
Cuz no one likes misery
Gone on
Too long
Fakin my way
’til I hit the top
It’s gone
All wrong
Why don’t I stop the fall?
