Happy
Finding True Joy: Unveiling the Emotional Journey in John Thomas' 'Happy'
Lyrics
I care too much
I am deeply concerned or affected
What people think
About the opinions or judgments of others
I stress until I make myself sick
I experience stress to the point of making myself physically unwell
Does everyone
Is this a common experience for everyone
feel that weight
Is there a shared sense of heaviness or responsibility
Or is it just me
Or is this feeling unique to me
I find myself
I discover that I'm wasting my time
Stealing my days
Wasting my days on unproductive or negative activities
Locking up my happiness in constant chains
I imprison my joy by holding onto it with unbreakable chains
Where do I
At what point
Draw the line
Should I set a limit or boundary
I don't wanna feel the burden of
I don't want to bear the weight of
Hurting someone I love
Harming someone I love
I don't wanna feel the burden of
I don't want to bear the weight of
Hurting someone I love
Harming someone I love
But I can’t make everybody happy
However, it is impossible to please everyone
It comes and goes but it’s never lasting
This feeling of trying to make everyone happy is fleeting
No I can’t make everybody happy
No, I cannot consistently make everyone happy
And As long as I try I will keep on asking
As long as I attempt, I will continue to question
When do I get to be
When will I have the chance
Happy with me
To experience happiness with myself
When do I get to be
When will I have the chance
Happy with me
To experience happiness with myself
I know it lies
I recognize that it exists
Deep down inside
Deep within me
The peace that I’ve been
The inner peace I have been searching for throughout my life
Seeking my entire life
I approach it closely
I get so close
Yet, it consistently eludes me
But it always slips
It slips away despite my efforts
Away from me
It consistently escapes from my grasp
I put my worth
I place my value or significance
In others hands
In the hands of others
I can build a castle
I can construct an illusionary fortress
With some borrowed sand
Using borrowed or temporary resources
When will I
When will I decide
Draw the line
To set a limit or boundary
I don't wanna feel the burden of
I don't want to bear the weight of
Hurting someone I love
Harming someone I love
I don't wanna feel the burden of
I don't want to bear the weight of
Hurting someone I love
Harming someone I love
But I can’t make everybody happy
However, it is impossible to please everyone
It comes and goes but it’s never lasting
This feeling of trying to make everyone happy is fleeting
No I can’t make everybody happy
No, I cannot consistently make everyone happy
And As long as I try I will keep on asking
As long as I attempt, I will continue to question
When do I get to be
When will I have the chance
Happy with me
To experience happiness with myself
When do I get to be
When will I have the chance
Happy with me
To experience happiness with myself
