Nervous happiness
Reverse of the silly mess that made you feel anything less
Release of negative pressure
It now becomes the lesser and you hesitantly move ahead
Every other time you’ve fled, but now you try to be brave
Try to save what’s left of your compassionate state
Regress the hate and illuminate something that could be worthwhile
You have all the while to ponder all the possible mistakes
The mornings you could wake full of hangover and heartache
You have all the while to worry of the things that may never be
Of the things you can’t see, you can spend all your time wondering
But worry and wonder will make you slip under, into an ocean of fantasy and pretend
In the end, reality is what you’re living and giving your time to worry is a waste
Take a taste of happiness
Let yourself experience bliss
And fall in without apprehension
You could drown in the tension of worry and wonder
You could slip under and never really live
So let yourself fall into happiness wholeheartedly
You are all you have to give
