-This is happiness-
There's a spot for me at the end of the hall
(Last door to the right)
They keep the party running and it never ends
The faster I walk, the quicker it fades

-this is happiness, keep your concerns-
Busy hands and blistering feet
No time to think,
Gotta stay quick
Gotta lose sleep.

-everything's calloused-
Lips stopped bleeding long ago
My teeth commanded an end to chattering
And now there's dry blood under my fingernails

-it seems so brutal, but this is happiness-
Where is the time going?
How to speak, how to think, how to find the time?
How do you pack a car to stay away 500 miles?
How do you leave what you've known?

-with a future-
There's a hallway with a room waiting just for me.
They have a show that doesn't stop,
they welcome fuzzy brains
Their words play over and over across my eyes
"You could be the life of the party and the star of our show"
it's ok
