comfortable with the bad things in your life
When you become accepting of how things are
Then happiness knocks on your door and
you turn it away claiming it's thinly veiled chaos
That it's all not real like the ones that came before
the ones that called themselves honesty and life
You bang your fists on the re-closed door and
ask the ceiling why this happened to you
When in reality it's because you choose to
let the past walk through the frame of your door
and it follows you around like a phantom telling
you that happiness will never come back because
it is all you will ever need in your life so you
look out your window and see happiness and life
are right outside your door but the door is rusty
so instead you burst out the window and
choose to take risks meeting a friend called hope

I think that their's a point where you become
comfortable with the bad things in your life
When you become accepting of how things are
Then happiness knocks on your door and
you turn it away claiming it's thinly veiled chaos
That it's all not real like the ones that came before
the ones that called themselves honesty and life
You bang your fists on the re-closed door and
ask the ceiling why this happened to you
When in reality it's because you choose to
let the past walk through the frame of your door
and it follows you around like a phantom telling
you that happiness will never come back because
it is all you will ever need in your life so you
look out your window and see happiness and life
are right outside your door but the door is rusty
so instead you burst out the window and
choose to take risks meeting a friend called hope
