Be Happy

A special collaboration with my sister, Laura Breidenthal. Go ahead and check out her poems and songs on here. She's a great writer. ;) (VI:) Been living in fear No second-thought cheer My mind’s a wand'rin' deer When will I wake from this nightmare? (Pre-ch:) Bittersweet envy [Be happy] Won’t let me be free [Be happy] Let’s all be happy You be you and I be me (Chorus:) I lay in bed in utter dread Be still, healing is near Anxiety was my killer med ‘til I found out that there's no fear I won’t feel bad I won’t feel sad Anymore, I swore For the one I adore (VII:) Had nights I couldn’t sleep My eyes no need to weep For tears they always seep Into memories so deep (Pre-ch:) Bittersweet envy [Be happy] Won’t let me be free [Be happy] Let’s all be happy You be you and I be me [Chorus:] I lay in bed in utter dread Be still, healing is near Anxiety was my killer med ‘til I found that there is no fear I won’t feel bad I won’t feel sad Anymore, I swore For the one I adore [Bridge:] So will you take my hand? I know you would understand For, I see the night In a different light [Chorus] I won’t feel bad I won’t feel sad Anymore, I swore For the one I adore (Alone:) I won’t feel bad I won’t feel sad Anymore, I’m yours You’re the one I adore
