Lyrics

Happiness Is Not a Given

Mm, mm

I woke up this morning, and joy was a knife
A cloud shifted in me, torn out from the sky
I fell into chasms, a black marble night
I found myself in a lost paradise

Then you said, "I'll be the door you can open up
Into the arms of an ocean
Don't go kicking and screaming
You've got to believe that there's more"

In a field full of ravens, a scarecrow takes flight
I kissed the horizon and rode on for miles
All the colors kept changing, the paint wouldn't dry
A new shade of green in this lost paradise

And I'll be the door you can open up
Into the arms of an ocean
Don't go kicking and screaming
You've got to believe that there's more

Happiness is not a given
Happiness is not a given, given
Happiness is not a given, given, given
Happiness is not a given, given, given
Happiness is not a given, given, given
Oh happiness is not a given, just give it, give it
Happiness is not a given, given

I'll be the door you can open up
Into the arms of an ocean

Mm, mm
