“Happy Ending” by Demi Lovato
In the recent past, we have pointed out how a semi-regular theme in the music industry revolves around singers, especially may we say of the pop variety, presenting themselves as these sort of gurus when it comes to dealing with depression. For instance, as relayed by Demi Lovato in this piece, she’s “tried” everything in terms of combating pervasive-inner feelings of melancholy. More specific in this case, she became a drug addict. And Demi being who she is, she also notes how for her, making an attempt to turn to God did not work out as idealized.
But in a more general sense what these songs seem to get at, as appears is the thesis sentiment of “Happy Ending”, is a notion like depression being a virtually-indestructible enemy. For instance as implied in the second verse, Demi may have kicked the habit alright. But in the aftermath she quite honestly puts forth that she ‘misses her vices’ which, all things considered, can be counted as another form of depression.
And as alluded to earlier, there really is a whole lot going on in this song. By and large it sounds pessimistic in nature, as if the singer has already concluded that happiness may be a goal that she’ll never truly achieve. But the reason Demi decided to come off like this isn’t nearly negatively-minded. Instead, she reportedly did so in the name of letting likeminded listeners know that she has gone through such an ordeal and successfully survived it.
