Poet Introduction
I'm here for now, gone tomorrow and forever lost
Happiness is Made
You say you're alone?
Convince them you need help
That life is tough, and you are week,
This here will make you stronger
We shuffle down our path, disregard the pain
The pain is a demon, a demon of shame.
This anger, regret and darkness inside.
It's unnatural they say, you'll feel normal in time.
Normal, and happy- a national standard
Those who are not are a crazy disaster
Do this, for you're crazy, it'll help, I promise
When it's over you'll be able to enjoy all the laughter.
You say you're a failure?
Tell them all of you're...
Convince them you need help
That life is tough, and you are week,
This here will make you stronger
We shuffle down our path, disregard the pain
The pain is a demon, a demon of shame.
This anger, regret and darkness inside.
It's unnatural they say, you'll feel normal in time.
Normal, and happy- a national standard
Those who are not are a crazy disaster
Do this, for you're crazy, it'll help, I promise
When it's over you'll be able to enjoy all the laughter.
You say you're a failure?
Tell them all of you're...

What you Call me
You call me beautiful
You call me great
You call me darlin'
Lord, I can't wait
For you to call me yours
We stay home
Warm in the sheets
I feel safe, snug here
Knowing you won't cheat
Hoping that I am right
I want to go out
Dance around the town
Meet all your friends
But you turn me down
"Let's stay home" you say
You call me precious
You call me sweet
You say I'm amazing
But I'm starting to think
You don't mean a word
A day goes by
And I don't hear from you
This isn't normal...
You call me great
You call me darlin'
Lord, I can't wait
For you to call me yours
We stay home
Warm in the sheets
I feel safe, snug here
Knowing you won't cheat
Hoping that I am right
I want to go out
Dance around the town
Meet all your friends
But you turn me down
"Let's stay home" you say
You call me precious
You call me sweet
You say I'm amazing
But I'm starting to think
You don't mean a word
A day goes by
And I don't hear from you
This isn't normal...
