"Happiness Is Gonna Get You" lyrics

"Happiness Is Gonna Get You"

There's a hand beckoning to a land I don't know
Indicating to cross the shore
And the water is cold as you're drawn through the floor
Falling, you open your eyes

Counting, the years go one by one
The rising sun is swallowing, hollowing
Come with a dream and leave with none
Is someone there observing?

There's a raping in the beauty
You're alive, there's no escape
Happiness is gonna get you
Happiness will make you pay
Like a satellite in free fall
Like a seizure on the floor
Happiness is gonna get you
Better let it in
Happiness is at
Your door

There's no hiding from time with its pulses and plagues
And the black birds gather their stones
There's a roar in the sky, and a cage in the flame
Do you see it? Can you feel it?

Counting, the years go one by one
The setting sun is swallowing, hollowing
Filled with a fear, we run, we run
Before it starts exploding

There's a raping in the beauty
You're alive, there's no escape
Happiness is gonna get you
Happiness will make you pay
Like a satellite in free fall
Like a seizure on the floor
Happiness is gonna get you
Better let it in
Happiness is at
The door

Better let it in
Happiness is waiting
Happiness is waiting
