Happiness, the one thing some of us will never believe in
Because of the way we look and because of the things we believe in
Always being put down by the people who think they’re above
Taking away the sadness with knives and drugs
Closing our eyes trying to hold back the tears
Always looking around for someone to take away the fears
But never finding that person so always feeling alone
Always hurting ourselves at work, school, and at home
But always hiding the pain when our friends are around
Smiling through the sadness even though we should frown
Hoping for death to come knock at our door
Because we know we just can’t take the pain anymore
Because of the way we look and because of the things we believe in

Always looking around for someone to take away the fears

Always hurting ourselves at work, school, and at home
But always hiding the pain when our friends are around

Hoping for death to come knock at our door
