"happy" you and me
There is an ache in my heart dear
borne not of love, but fear
that you're not the one for me
Worst yet you never can be
Should I tell you I think this?
And end our denial-bound bliss?
Do I bring up your constant greed?
How you always focus on your needs?
I already know what you will say
Why, you say it every day.
That if I really cared I'd be
less concerned with my own need
Your argument again wins the day
And my own feelings I tuck away
For I would never want to be
without you, alone, just me
For those feelings I tucked away
Would beat me down, make me pay
They'd take my vigor, and my charm
They'd steal my life, cause only harm
Thats why I'm "content" to be
"Happy" just you and me
We won't talk about my pain or strife
We won't talk about when I tried to take my life
We won't talk about dad's cold heart
no, we'll talk about why your car won't start
But watch out, because soon it'll be
no longer "happy" you and me
before long the truth I'll shout
Even if I have to act it out....
