Happy Again

One day, I'll be happy again When times get better, smiles won't be pretend One day, I swear it, I'll be happy again I'll ditch the time I spend inside my head, where nothing makes sense Inventing bad luck, like I don't have enough On my plate to concern me. Can you call my bluff 'Cause with half empty spirits, I pour in the cup Am I guarding myself or just being a punk Man, what in the f*ck God's given me love, he's given me trust in my life Fucked it all up more than once gettin' drunk I quit for my kids and my wife I'm distracted, I hate it. The shame, and debating On if I am worth it. Just shut up and save it Parading my problems and constantly blaming The world's indifference is not gonna change it We steal and we fight, and cry out to God at night Addicts and whores, and "those who don't matter" types Terrible stories put points on the board They give us no warning and kill us for lies One day, I'll be happy again When times get better, smiles won't be pretend One day, I swear it, I'll be happy again I'll ditch the time I spend inside my head, where nothing makes sense One day, I'll perish, but I'll make some new friends While I stare at Heaven's gates, and they don't let me in One day, I swear it, I'll be happy again I'll ditch the time I spend inside my head, where nothing makes sense I can't keep on pushing the limits, I know We just do what we want and demand we're forgiven 'Cause that's what it takes, to be a cutthroat Please send an angel to visit The stress we can't take it Breaking our backs to put money in savings Crises every direction, collecting donations For organizations that lie to your faces Corrupt politicians and Hollywood actors Man, we make them dumb bitches famous We follow them all to the grave Then plaster their pictures on all the front pages When their lame shit fucks up your life Don't be surprised if you do not make it They'll tell you keep quiet, if you do not like The destruction and pray for the nameless, f*ck One day, I'll be happy again When times get better, smiles won't be pretend One day, I swear it, I'll be happy again I'll ditch the time I spend inside my head, where nothing makes sense One day, I'll perish, but I'll make some new friends While I stare at Heaven's gates, and they don't let me in One day, I swear it, I'll be happy again I'll ditch the time I spend inside my head, where nothing makes sense Maybe one day, I'll walk down the street in the city, without being armed with a gun Maybe one day, I won't see the harm on my screen, mocking me under my thumbs Maybe one day, I won't hear the sirens, and violence and riots and what we've become Maybe one day, I'll see something pretty; the silence is bliss, with my kids having fun One day, I'll be happy again When times get better, smiles won't be pretend One day, I swear it, I'll be happy again I'll ditch the time I spend inside my head, where nothing makes sense One day, I'll perish, but I'll make some new friends While I stare at Heaven's gates, and they don't let me in One day, I swear it, I'll be happy again I'll ditch the time I spend inside my head, where nothing makes sense
