Happy If You Could

[Verse 1]
There was a ghost strung up in all my closets then
Changing the way I look but never the mood I'm in
Staring down eyes
Clenching this fist
Wearing these burdens in
Fighting an old war now
We never can win again

[Chorus 1]
Why, oh, why don't people get along?
Jumpin' out their office window
Just before the fire was gone
And I oh I got anger in my blood
Set the clock to start it over
Would you be happy if you could?

[Verse 2]
When you're the softest heart
You're gonna get broken in
Every wall you build up's gonna cave back in
You're staring down eyes
Clenching these fists
Wearing these burdens in
You're fighting an old war now
You never can win again

[Chorus 2]
Why, oh, why don't people get along?
Jumpin' out their office window
Just before the fire was gone
And I oh I got anger in my blood
Set the clock to start it over
Would I be happy if I could?

[Chorus 1]
Why, oh, why, don't people get along?
Jumpin' out their office window
Just before the fire was gone
And I oh I got anger in my blood
Set the clock to start it over
Would you be happy if you could?
