I wonder who you'd be
Without your misery
You say you want a better life
Reaching for a happier day
But will it leave you with less to say?
Who you are and who you want to be
Are separated only by your plight
What becomes of a soldier after the fight?
Tearless you, when it rains
Can't let go of your pains
Falling hopeless, you won't change
Beneath your fear you are curled
I wonder what you'd ask of the world
After you'd had freedom from your chains
Would life be the same with no one to blame?
Or would you crack without a cursed name?
Bliss should help you to soar
Could you even tell anymore
What it is to be happy?
Yet laughter frequents your face
Has your heart ever truly left that place?
Where did you hide the key to that locked door?
Lost in the darkness of your misery?
Why is your own happiness so hard to see?
