You Should Be Sad (stylized in sentence case) is a song by singer-songwriter Halsey that was released on January 10, 2020. It is the fourth single from Halsey's upcoming studio album Manic.
On this country-influenced track, the singer can be heard pouring out her frustrations about a previous relationship. While also, throwing in some subtle jabs about her ex's character towards her.
She begins to open up on the first verse singing:
I wanna start this out and say
I gotta get it off my chest
Got no anger, got no malice
Just a little bit of regret
Know nobody else will tell you
So there's some things I gotta say
Gonna jot it down and then get it out
And then I'll be on my way
Then, Halsey starts giving her ex-boyfriend a piece of her mind on the pre-chorus with:
No, you're not half the man you think that you are
And you can't fill the hole inside of you with money, drugs, and cars
I'm so glad I never ever had a baby with you
'Cause you can't love nothing unless there's something in it for you
On the chorus, the singer is switching courses about how she tried to help her former lover with the lyrics:
Oh, I feel so sorry, I feel so sad
I tried to help you, it just made you mad
And I had no warning about who you are
I'm just glad I made it out without breaking down
I really like the country approach that Halsey is bringing with this song just like she did in "Finally // Beautiful Stranger". I could never imagine her singing country music until now. And we are just one week away from the release of her Manic album. So, I can't wait to hear all of the other songs that she has in store for us.
