Avril Lavigne’s ‘Happy Ending’ – From the Vault

November 3, 2009 by Brittany

I find it interesting that a lot of Avril Lavigne’s earlier songs seem more appropriate for what she’s going through right now (her divorce from Deryck Whibley). Especially her song “My Happy Ending”. Here are the main lyrics that every girl who has gone through a break up can relate to.

You were everything, everything that I wanted.

And we were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it.

And all the memories, so close to me just fade away.

All this time you were pretending.

So much for my happy ending.

But as I have discussed in a previous post a man/boyfriend/husband/significant other should not define who we are. They should not control our happiness in the sense that if it doesn’t work out that we’ll be miserable. Of course it’s pretty brutal in the beginning but Avril Lavigne still has a bright future ahead of her. Hopefully one that involves lots of cute boys!!!!!!

“My Happy Ending” is such a great song for breakups that I decided to post a video of her playing an acoustic version with Evan. Check it out after the cut.
