lyrics

I once had a lover
And I still love her
But not in the way that I used to
And moving on means growing
And thinking you’re knowing
A life that would be better for you
And hearts they grow bitter
And slowly they wither
Until your optimism follows the runoff down the drains
And you throw your arms up defeated
For you just couldn’t foresee it
But now it’s all before you more clear than the rain

Oh but it’s all in the mind
That someone’s love could make you satisfied
And all the happiness you find
Will be matched with its anguish in time
For we can’t all be happy, we can’t all be happy, but I’m at least going to try
Yeah we can’t all be happy, we can’t all be happy, but I’m at least going to try

So you think that you’re stable
You’re willing and able
To leave your home for the world
But your heart is still fragile
Too hesitant to be agile
Though perceptually ready for what may unfurl
For you’re not quite so soured
Enough to be devoured
You have no choice but to resurface alive
With your motives in question
But you refuse to address them
For you’d opt rather to face towards the heavens as you cry

That it’s all in the mind
That someone’s love could make you satisfied
And all the happiness you find
Will be matched with its anguish in time
For we can’t all be happy, we can’t all be happy, but I’m at least going to try
Yeah we can’t all be happy, we can’t all be happy, but I’m at least going to try
