Happy Huggard

Your walls soar high
You can step outside
Breathing feels alright
Young is the night
 
You're ready to lie
You hide it all inside
Who would dare put up a fight?
They've only one goal in sight
 
What can they give to vy?
It's only your time to bide
Nothing they'd say would be right
Again you supress the fright
 
It's time for a new try
You pick up your stride
Alone in a sea of white
You ask for a light
 
*Chorus*
But Happy, are you happy?
You saviour, you angel
Tell me that we're happy
Show me that we're able
 
Come the poisons of space
Minutes shed like death
The air inside warns you
But the chill outside numbs you
 
Your walls slide aside
You can step inside
Silence covered by noise
Friendship numbered by ploys
 
The drinks come free
Or do they, really?
It's all fair game
Cheating all the same
 
Don't let it slip in
Anything can happen
Don't let them see you weak
Though you feel it on your cheeks
 
(Chorus)
 
An anxious sip soothes the beast
Only for another to rise
From ashes of a weekend deceased
And tears promised never to cry
 
But don't dwell on mistakes
Let the anger wash away
Like your inhibiting aches
And the dreams he'd stay
 
The scent of lost spills
Sports on the corner TV
Thinned blood and warm chills
Voices and faces carefree
 
Catching an empty stare
From the drunk who's always there
Such a pitiful man
What's his desperate plan?
 
(Chorus)
 
Pinball shouts and spinning slots
Fingering straws and wasted thoughts
Go home now before it happens again
With instincts like that you'll never find friends
 
Hold onto hope
Maybe he'll show
Trust you can cope
When feeling doubt grow
 
The bass rumbles in
Hungering cheers arise
Let music hold your soul
Like no one will ever know
 
Hands pass like ghosts
Brushing against your hips
None want you the most
Or they'ed speak to your lips
 
(Chorus)
