Happiness (feat. Luis Galindo)

The morning exploded into my window all flowers and light There were no nightmares while sleeping In fact, I dreamed that I could fly Awake I sing the song that filled my heart While I was soaring above the dreamscape It tells a story of love and joy And the neighborhood vibrates with molecules of elation I can feel the souls around me dancing within the bodies That they are inhabiting While some are bent and crooked with age Some with abuse, heartache, and loss The soul remains unencumbered by its mortal coil The souls dance and sing within Like beautiful creatures imprisoned in a zoo Joy it seems is the natural state of things The universal way of being It's fulfillment reached when we stop fighting And allow it to take over completely To laugh, dance, and sing, cost nothing And if the laughter, dance, and song Are composed of the genuine stuff of being They cannot help but express joy Even in grief and sorrow Do we see the shadows of happiness The deeper the pain The greater the happiness that filled the soul who mourns its absence I say laugh at the pain Dance at the grief Sing at the sorrow till the world explodes Into giant heavens aflame with ecstasy Burning as wild, and free and uncontrollable as comets Each sentient being will ascend to unimaginable heights of joy A rapture of pure bliss We will finally remember that this is who we are And a true heaven will dawn
