“You will be happy” said Life
But first ill make you strong,
It will make you question things in your life to work out what went wrong.

“You will be happy,” said Life,
But first, i’ll make you ill,
So ill that you’ll appreciate what it feels like to be well.

“You will be happy,” said Life,
But first ill make you cry,
Cry so many tears as you watch your many friends lives pass by.

“You will be happy,” said Life
But first ill cause you pain,
Pain you’ve never felt before,
You won’t tell the sunshine from the rain.

“You will be happy,” said Life
But first, i’ll make you strong,
Now I sit here wondering if my happy years have been and gone.
