Honey, when I’m above the treesI see this for what it isBut now I’m right down in it, all the years I’ve givenIs just shit we’re dividin’ upShowed you all of my hiding spotsI was dancing when the music stoppedAnd in the disbelief, I can’t face reinventionI haven’t met the new me yetThere’ll be happiness after youBut there was happiness because of youBoth of these things can be trueThere is happinessPast the blood and bruisePast the curses and criesBeyond the terror in the nightfallHaunted by the look in my eyesThat would’ve loved you for a lifetimeLeave it all behindAnd there is happinessTell me, when did your winning smileBegin to look like a smirk?When did all our lessons start to look like weaponsPointed at my deepest hurt?I hope she’ll be your beautiful foolWho takes my spot next to youNo, I didn’t mean thatSorry, I can’t see facts through all of my furyYou haven’t met the new me yetThere’ll be happiness after meBut there was happiness because of meBoth of these things, I believeThere is happiness
In our history, across our great divideThere is a glorious sunriseDappled with the flickers of lightFrom the dress I wore at midnight, leave it all behindAnd there is happinessI can’t make it go away by making you a villainI guess it’s the price I paid for seven years in HeavenAnd I pulled your body into mineEvery goddamn night, now I get fake nicetiesNo one teaches you what to doWhen a good man hurts youAnd you know you hurt him, tooHoney, when I’m above the treesI see it for what it isBut now my eyes leak acid rain on the pillow where you used to lay your headAfter giving you the best I hadTell me what to give after thatAll you want from me now is the green light of forgivenessYou haven’t met the new me yetAnd I think she’ll give you thatThere’ll be happiness after youBut there was happiness because of you, tooBoth of these things can be trueThere is happinessIn our history, across our great divideThere is a glorious sunriseDappled with the flickers of lightFrom the dress I wore at midnight, leave it all behindOh, leave it all behindLeave it all behindAnd there is happiness
