since i met you
this small town hasn't got room
for my big feelings


violently happy
'cause i love you


violently happy
but you're not here


violently happy
come calm me down

before i get into trouble

i tip-toe down to the shore

stand by the ocean
make it roar at me
and i roar back


violently happy
'cause i love you


violently happy
but you're not here


violently happy
overemotional


violently happy
i'll get into trouble

real soon
if you don't get here
baby


violently happy
'cause i love you


violently happy
i'm aiming too high


violently happy
it will get me into trouble

violently happy
i'm driving my car
too fast

with ecstatic music on

violently happy

i'm getting too drunk

violently happy

i'm daring people
to jump off roofs with me


only you
can calm me down
i'm aiming too high


soothe me
