lyrics

I'm only happy when it rains
I'm only happy when it's complicated
And though I know you can't appreciate it
Why it feels good to feel so sad
I'm only happy when it rains

Pour your misery down
Pour your misery down on
Pour your misery down
Pour your misery down on me

I feel good when things are goin' wrong
I only listen to the sad, sad songs
(I only smile in the dark)
My only comfort is the night gone black
Didn't accidentally tell you that
I'm only happy when it rains

Pour your misery down
(Happy when it rains)
I'm only happy when it rains
Pour your misery down
Pour your misery down on me

You'll get the message by the time I'm through
When I complain about me and you

You can keep me company
As long as you don't care
(I only smile in the dark)
You wanna hear about my new obsession?
I'm riding high upon a deep depression
I'm only happy when it rains

Pour your misery down
(Happy when it rains)
I'm only happy when it rains
Pour your misery down
(Happy when it rains)
Pour your misery down on

I'm only happy when it rains
I'm only happy when it's complicated
And though I know you can't appreciate it
You know I love it when the news is bad
Why it feels good to feel so sad
I'm only happy when it rains

Pour your misery down

Pour your misery down
(Happy when it rains)
Pour your misery down on
Pour your misery down
(Happy when it rains)
Pour your misery down on me

(Down on me)

UNICORN
by GUNSHIP

supported by 35 fans who also own “Only Happy When It Rains”

Gunship leans hard into the DRAMA of the synthwave genre, which is really what it's all about. It's burn... intensity, kinetic energy, triumph and tragedy. The arrangements rise and fall, and the textures weave everything together into a ride you just need to get on, throw up your arms, let the wind blow back your hair, and enjoy. Peace Mob

Dark All Day
by GUNSHIP

supported by 32 fans who also own “Only Happy When It Rains”

After I discovered GUNSHIP with UNICORN, I went through all their material in a rush. They're whole discography is great, and I think this is the greatest. This album haunts me. I can't listen to it once. Even if I turn it off, I still hear it echoing in the back of my mind. GUNSHIP has a mastery of the bridge that reaches the level of mastery in this album that's just unrivaled. If you get only one album from GUNSHIP, get this one. Mailanka
