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
