Happy Ending
They say ease up with your flacks, man you’ve got to relax
Take a breath and be
chill, if it’s meant then it will
Come to fruition, but it’s straining this condition
Hits me like a drill in my head and I spill
Out comes the ignorance, reeks of abhorrence,
Words to inflame, cause harm and maim
Thoughtless barrages, insecure collages,
Wonder not from where it came, we’re trapped in some evil game
Somewhere there’s a happy ending, somewhere there’s a golden
goose
Close my eyes there’s a wish I’m sending, tomorrow finds us
free of abuse
Standing tall beside a happy ending, with a basket of eggs
from the golden goose
So, I figure then maybe silence is golden, there’s a vision
I want to be holdin’
I got to stop all the wailing, crazy babble arms flailing
Chillin ain’t really all that bad, cause you know one day
you’ll be glad,
Dream about it as you’re foldin’, laundry thinking nights
are cold and
Why do you want sulk and cowl? Say I quit and toss in the
towel?
Pain is not exclusive to your heart, but she’s been dreaming
since the start
Reassure her and embolden, offer praise and support not
scoldin’
Wrap memories of joyful screams, around all of your nightly
dreams
Remember how empty my heart was till you strolled in? When
you snuggle up with me silence is golden
Somewhere there’s a happy ending, somewhere there’s a golden
goose
Close my eyes there’s a wish I’m sending, tomorrow finds us
free of abuse
Standing tall beside a happy ending, with a basket of eggs
from the golden goose
And the love of my life under my arm
