Myth Of Happiness Lyrics & Chords By Jay Brannan

Well that bullet in your mouth
Found the easy way out
Won't be long until you're sorry
The future was lookin' starry
Now your eyes are sweating doubt

You look good in them jeans
DO YOU KNOW WHAT LOVE MEANS?
They said just do the things you do
And love'll just come to you
They left out all the in-betweens

CHORUS:
I have found effort combined
With indifference
Is the formula for success
And the prisoner most craving
Deliverance
Is the one proffered it less
Why won't you liberate me?
I'm a captive refugee
From this myth of happiness
Still a believer i guess

I don't always feel on
In fact i'm usually turned off
But i am drawn into your greiving
And you're smile's not so deceiving
I can take the face off

And he coulda, woulda, wasn't
And i am, will, have, did
And if tomorrow i died
No one would say i hadn't tried
Even succeeded, god forbid

CHORUS

You say you don't have love
What if love truly is an action?
Can't learn to walk until you crawl
But why does a building
Have to fall
For a man to show compassion?

CHORUS

WILL YOU BELIEVE WITH ME?
Say yes
