Happiness, That I Forbid Myself Lyrics

I can't shake the feeling that something is going to explode

The most painful thing we can do in our lives is choose to hope

(After all of the hiding)

(After all of the fighting)

I've lost control of all the emotions I've held in now

And it's bursting out

I can't help but feel like we're teetering on the brink of joy

This electric highwire we tread hoping not to be destroyed

Through endless carefulness

We kid ourselves out of so much of what make life so good

And we're stopping now

All the happiness that I forbid myself

It doesn't belong to anyone else

It's taken years for me to find myself

And the journey has just begun

oh, happiness that I forbid myself

It doesn't belong to anyone else

It's taken years for me to find myself

And the journey has just begun

There is so much beauty in life that is yet to be adored

There are types of colours that I've never ever seen before

Through reckless merriment

We give the child inside our souls the love they never got

Let them re-birth

A magical vulnerability

Like chopping all your hair off and throwing it in the sea

(Throwing it in the ocean)

Letting it happen now

Letting it happen now

I am flirting with the idea of everyone

The idea of everyone

Don't let your heart go to waste

Don't let your heart go to waste

All the happiness that I forbid myself

It doesn't belong to anyone else

It's taken years for me to find myself

And the journey has just begun

oh, happiness that I forbid myself

It doesn't belong to anyone else

It's taken years for me to find myself

And the journey has just begun
