To Be Happy

She said to stop feeling For the things I can't control Just pray for the living Or at least toss them your dinner rolls You see, the time we make here is precious And we're never really given quite enough So please spend it all sparingly At least 'til the bank makes you give it all up And she said we're both broken And that was a token of this new day and age (New day and age) And I started having hope in being a little more open to a never coming change (New coming change) I thought she might've misspoken And yet my trust in her grows Everyday, while I wait, For our hearts to be shaped And connect, for what's next Cuz we won't hesitate To be happy To be happy She said don't turn your back on the world But son I get you need to cry (You need to cry) And if they don't see how you work it out How will they know they can also try You gotta lead by example So toss your pride down at the door (At the door) You're the king of this here castle So what should our next move be my lord She said the worlds a little broken And that was a token of this brand new day and age (Brand new day and age) And I started having hope in, Being a little more open, To this never coming, everlasting change (Everlasting change) I thought she might've misspoken, And yet, my trust in her grows Everyday, while I wait For our hearts to be shaped and connect, For what's next, cuz we won't hesitate To be happy I wanna be happy
