Happy To Be Here
Happy to be here
Is there someone you know
who's dark days only grow
And they can't say, they're happy to be here
When a bright, new day breaks
but, they're afraid to awake
And they won't say they're happy to be here
And they can't say they're happy to be here
There's a rainbow, it's true
it's color's, fading hues
And they can't find any joy in living
And a bird when it sings
doesn't mean anything
There's no meaning in their song of beauty
ooh and I feel bad for them......
ooh and I feel bad for them......
And their friends, family
just want them to be free
but their thoughts, keep them enchained, in prison
When their hands and their feet
have been bound endlessly
and their only companion is sorrow
And a new day is born
but they feel so forlorn
and the voices just bellow with laughter
And they can't say their happy to be here
oooh and I feel bad for them
oooh and I feel bad for them
Every day is a task
so they put on new masks
so that no one can see, they've been crying
Like the tears of a clown
when no one is around
How can anyone know what they're feeling?
oooh and I feel bad for them
oooh and I feel bad for them
And they say there's a pill
but they haven't the will
they say no pill, can fill, all their empty
So they live day to day
and they hope and they pray
Please forgive me God, for what I'm thinking
oooh and I feel bad for them
oooh and I feel bad for them
So you go the next day
want to wipe their tears away
but, you get there, far too late, to save them
oooh and I feel bad for them
oooh and I feel bad for them
They just couldn't say,
they're happy
to
be
here!
