Happiness

(album: All These Countless Nights - 2017)

I've been dragging out my love over 13 months right now
It's been a year of not believing who I've found
I've been trying out this thing they call happiness for a while
But I never truly cleared my cluttered mind

Because I knew that you'd get sick of all the stupid things I did
And how I never think far enough ahead
'Cause my drinking takes its toll on everybody around me, especially you
It's like a degenerate disease

Because it eats away at everything
But mostly love
And the strength we build between us
And all the time it takes to build the trust right back up
Isn't worth a single drop or glass or anything
And I don't want anything

I've got a liver full of toxins and belly full of fire
And a tendency to lose myself for a while
'Cause all the countless nights I spent cowering in bed
'Cause I can't fight the voice that rings inside my head

Because it eats away at everything
But mostly love
And strength we build between us
And all the time it takes to build the trust right back up
Isn't worth a single drop or glass or anything
And I don't want anything, but you

Because it eats away at everything
But mostly love
And the strength we build between us
And all the time it takes to build the trust right back up
Isn't worth a single drop or glass or anything
I don't want anything

Because it eats away at everything
But mostly love
And the strength we build between us
And all the time it takes to build the trust right back up
Isn't worth a single drop or glass or anything
And I don't want anything, but you
