[Verse 1]
An ambulance is speeding, the sky is turning red
It's time to do some sweeping, it's dusty in my head 'cause I've been sleeping
I'm sick of chasing magic, dragons in the sky
You can say I'm evil, you can scream and cry into the vortex
Don't make a difference
[Chorus]
Don't know why I'm happy
I just am
Don't know why I'm happy
I just am
[Verse 2]
You wear it like a medal, the madness in your soul
You think nobody feels it, like they don't have a hole that's always leaking
If the streets were empty, we'd dance around like kids
Soon we would be asking, is this really it?
Our time is ending, pockets are empty
[Chorus]
Don't know why I'm happy
I just am
Don't know why I'm happy
I just am
[Verse 3]
Everybody's rushing to get to their TV
And then when they get there try to get behind screen
Try and touch it, try and touch the dream
I saw riches in a coffin, rags inside a mansion
Diamonds in a baby's eyes, when I was down in Kansas in the dust bowl
I was just a stranger
[Chorus]
Don't know why I'm happy
I just am
Don't know why I'm happy
I just am
