lyrics

No longer problems of the heart if I turn my head

To the white, fluorescent light of my mental institution

I’m happy to be alive

I don’t have a choice while I’m here

I don’t have a voice, that’s what I hear

No more nights of endless moaning

Whether sad or sexualized,

So I smile, confiding in my murky mirror

I’m happy to be alive

No more feeling like my mind’s a prison

No more, no more, no more

And I smirk; I gladly listen

I’m alive

I don’t have a choice while I’m here

I don’t have a voice, that’s what I hear

Human something now—humans being humans

In good, bad, confusing, yet simple ways

Connection: from endless love…to blunt mistakes

Humans doing things to bring the humans

To the eye or ear or nose or heart

To the falling footsteps on loosened rocks

In echo, and the silence following

Human to human, something now

Same tomorrow and yesterday

We’ll see it’s all we ever wanted

Humans being human, to bring the peoples’

Eyes or ears or procreative channels

Together to watch, to feel, to taste, to blend

To separate and start again

Am I happy to be alive?

I don’t have a choice

Am I happy?

I want to be happy and not too much of an asshole

Right now, I’m about as relieved as a dog, guilty of pissing the rug

I don’t have a choice,

I just want to be happy
