Love & Happiness

Hide your face because you’re ashamed to be who you are

Never knew a destination could be so far

Somewhere deep down you always knew that love was just a word

And to think that a word can bring you happiness is just absurd

It’s all about the journey they say

About the mistakes you make along the way

But mistakes are just excuses for falling from the path

Believing that every choice we make has some sort of aftermath

Whether it’s good or bad, it can define who we become

When the truth is that we all fall victim beneath someone’s thumb

We succumb to words, we falter to the simplest of sins

Because we live in a world where nobody loses and nobody wins

We all funnel into the same destiny; it is eminent that we go

And in the end we are remembered not for who we are, but for who we know

We ask ourselves our entire lives where happiness and love have gone

When the answer to those questions is making your own heart your home

For when nobody can seem to love you, only you can love you like you should

Instead of dwelling on those who said that they could or that they would

Wrap yourself up in the comfort of your own arms

For this world will eat you up and spit you out with its false charms

Resort to, instead of substance and crutches, to a place where you find

That love and happiness have always been there, waiting for you to change your mind
