lyrics

AM I HAPPY NOW?

Joy is the silent type.
Joy is a silence, you won't know she's there
til she's going, going, gone...

Joy is the silent type.
Joy is a silence, you won't know she's there
til she's going, going, gone...

You found her, but what did you actually find?
Is joy just a gull-glowing promise denied?
Like snow she is leopards of little white lies.
Like stars she is cobwebs of shutterless eyes.

Am I wasting my time?
I am lost in her pines.
Am i bit by her bite?
I don't know what you are.
I don't know what you are.

Joy is the silent type.
Joy is a silence, you won't know she's there
til she's going, going, gone...

You found her, but what did you actually find?
A garden of faces I can't recognize,
the most upside-down question mark of all time.
You found her but what did you actually find?

I am wasting my time.
I am allergic to life.
I am blinded by sight.
I feel her kicking inside,
but i don't know what she's like.
I don't know what it's like.
I don't know what it's like.
I don't know what it's like.

Gone...
