FELICITY By Alan Stallsmith In search of felicity I befriended despair Drudging up past demons That I should have left there These memories haunt These insecurities roar Sometimes my mind Doesn't know what it's for I grasped so tight My hands they bled I slept so long This life's a bed Awaken! Awaken! Demand brand new! Take action! Take action! This can't always be you! These days haven't ended And the clock's hands still move And this life is a train Conducted by you So in meeting felicity I looked in the eyes of despair Said "Thanks for the memories. But I no longer live there"
