What is love, how it happens and why is it so painful?
The air I breathe is slowly turning into sorrow,
Filling my lungs day and night.
Yesterday and today will always be repeated tomorrow,
I have no one to make my wrongs right.
And I ask myself when will happiness break through?
So I stare into the mirror, aware of the reflection.
Close the door behind me; I’d rather be the only witness.
The relationship between my knees and the floor, there is only tension.
For my mind knows very well that they would rejoice in my weakness.
And I ask myself when will happiness break through?
Protected by four walls, yet I find myself in need of directions,
Unable to think straight.
As I hear the door open, I scramble to hide my defections.
I set my eyes upon her, I see her relief… not too late.
And I ask myself when will happiness break through?
I being to think, the very air I breath fails me.
Inhaling sin, and exhaling profanity.
“Nothing” I say, but my tears are ahead of me,
And now she can see my dishonesty.
And I ask myself when will happiness break through?
She tries to talk down my walls, as she speaks into my ear,
*“You’re young, and a life of happiness awaits you.”
I state at her cold, empty as if she were my mirror.
Before I know it, I’m yelling “Happiness isn’t strong enough to get through.”
As soon as the words are said I come to the realization maybe the answer is clear, nothing or no one can be victorious fighting alone.
I’ve got to do this on my own
Figure out what’s happened to me and how sadly I’ve grown
Realize the mistakes I never intended to make
And the promises that I keep and somehow break
And I ask myself when will happiness break through?
I’ve never felt like this before
It feels like I’m in a war
A war against myself and you
That I kept on ignoring to try myself from going blue
And I ask myself when will happiness break through?
See this is just a nightmare so I blink twice
Open up my eyes hoping she’d be in my sight
It’s impossible to accept that you’re gone
Along with your love is what you’ve withdrawn
And I ask myself when will happiness break through?
Please come back and tell me that you love me
Caz when if you won’t it’ll straight up kill me
So I’m torn to do what I have to
To bring you back, the same girl I loved and knew
And I ask myself when will happiness break through?
See you forgot about the house,
You forgot about the ring,
I remember everything,
I just want to hear you sing,
And I ask myself when will happiness break through?
See girl, we were a perfect match
A match made in heaven a billion times brighter than a match
A match made in heaven
That set the fires in hell
And I ask myself when will happiness break through?
So baby, lets finish this off
Please just come back and kill this pain
Baby let’s commit the perfect crime
I’ll steal your heart, you’ll steal mine
