No Happy

Sunday morning

a revelation

I saw myself as

my own salvation

I banged my head against

the brick wall and

I turned around it was him

He said gently now

"Who is it? Your daddy?"

And I said

"I did not know, but sadly

Make a sound and make it loud

With the lightness of a cloud

Write a song about today

There is nothing more to say."

He said

"I thought that nothing matterred

that's why my perception is in tatters

Come with me and I'll show you something

Come with me and you'll see

Look over there where that bird is standing"

And I sat next to the one that's landing

"That bird knows how good it feels

To exist beneith the wheels

Of a tidal wave of pain

And his happiness will gain."

Go and get no happy

Go and get no happy

Go and get no happy

Go and get no happy

Go and get no happy

Go and get no happy

Go and get no happy

I thank you men

now I feel much better

Now that I'm aware

of my nature

'Cause before I was sick in the head

Now it could be your own

Before you go

can I ask one more thing?

He said "yes"

as he started yawning

"How can I feel morally rich

when I live inside a bitch?

And the truth is so far down

that its easy to let it drown?"

He said "Listen to yourself

You sound just like someone else

If you really feel this way

Why don't you end it today?"
