I just want to be happy
"I just want to be happy,"
I said, as tears fell down my face
I just want to be happy
and get the hell out of this place.
I just want to be happy
but I know I'll never feel that here
in this place where love is scarcely shown
and most time is spent in fear...
I just want to be happy
I don't wanna measure up
to some stupid freaking standards
that society made up
I just want to be happy
I just want to feel free
I just want to feel secure...
like I can actually be me
I want to lay down my burden
kick my heels up & relax...
I just want to be happy...
Is that too much to ask?
Happiness seems to evade me at every turn... stupid me...I forget...I'm not meant to be happy...when will I ever learn?
