Happier Now Lyrics

There is an ancient code of the trees

Passed down through the roots

And the stones at the bottom of a river

And it's ours to keep

There's nothing to lose but hope

When we realize the giver

Is stronger than

A group of friends

Politicians and trends

When the crowd leaves

I face empty seats

There's only one who would stay

To watch me

And I used to think people

Would laugh if I tried

And it seemed the complainers

Had happier lives

But the sunsets and clouds

Led me out of this town

Where I'm finally aligned

We are happier now

There is a book on how to be free

One rule that you probably know

So there's no need to repeat it

When it finally meets your life

They'll shake hands and end

All of your unresolved conflict

Drive down the road

I go too slow

Cause I don't wanna go home

Like I'm writing a song

I suddenly hear

A voice telling me not to be condescending

Cause I used to think people

Would laugh if I tried

And it seemed the complainers

Had happier lives

But the sunsets and clouds

Led me out of this town

Where I'm finally aligned

We are happier now

Ooh I don't need to part the sea

New life surrounds me

I was complete, society

Breaks what's lovely

For the rest of days

Build back your heart

In the end you'll find

It's as pure as the start

When a child's open eyes

For the very first time

See the light and the love

Of a mother who cried

Through the sunsets and clouds

Earth is spinning around

In the end floating up

We are happier now

We are happier now
