It′s all over
Credits are rolling down
Are you happy now
I was beautiful to you
Before you got to know me
Did my flaws cover up your view
Do you feel okay
Are you feeling safe
Without me (without me)
Your energy is suffocating me
Are you happy now
It's all over
Credits are rolling down
Are you happy now
Don′t call me again
Don't waste all my time
Don't ask me if everything is fine
Cause we both know that′s a lie
Do you feel okay
Are you feeling safe
Without me
Your energy is suffocating me
Are you happy now
It′s all over
Credits arе rolling down
Are you happy now
In the song "Are You Happy Now" by Savannah Saturn, the singer is direct and vulnerable about a recently-ended relationship. The lyrics question the status of the other person's happiness with the breakup, as well as their happiness in general. The chorus repeats the question, "Are you happy now?" as the credits roll down, which is a clear reference to the ending of a movie or TV show.
Saturn talks about the idea of being beautiful to someone before they really know you, and then having your flaws get in the way of that beauty. This suggests that the relationship fell apart when the other person realized that Saturn wasn't perfect. The second verse is a plea for the other person to stop contacting her, as their presence is suffocating her.
Overall, the song is reflective and emotionally charged. Saturn seems to be making peace with the end of the relationship, but still wants to know if the other person is happy without her. The repetition of the chorus gives the song an anthemic feel, suggesting that it's a question that many people ask themselves after a breakup.

"I was beautiful to you before you got to know me" man that lyric hits home for me, I feel like when people learn about your personality and your life, they leave because you're too crazy for them lol 😥 I relate

That's why when people say I love you too fast, don't take it as fact until they learn who you are, because some people don't realize to really.love someone takes time to get to know who they really are first. Then you decide

"You're energy is suffocating me" is exactly what my narcissist.husband did to me. His bad energy he constantly put out slowly killed my soul.
