Other Side of Happiness

Looking for space in my own life
Patience is a virtue you better hold tight
Alone for a decade been some long nights
Happiness to me it never feels right
She wanna know if Ima win and if I'm gonna sin
Snapple bottle 15 years old full of the gin
Passed out wake up who the hell I really am
Next morning she points a finger and smiles at him
I dont need no help
Im just too scared to introduce myself
So instead I do drugs just to lose my self
And the stage and microphone is the only place I prove myself yo
Too scared to write it down bare and naked
Still can’t love off the self hatred
Wish I had the courage to say things
Conversations in my head we coulda made it

[Pre-Chorus]
The river burst its banks as I cry
These tears will dry
The tears will dry
I will tremble as I speak
The words will run away from me

[Chorus]
Wounds will heal, the scars will fade away
Wounds will heal, the scars will fade away

Fade away into black thats the darkness
So show me the light of what the art is
Too many condescending compliments like you one of those good heart big heart kids
You need to listen to the message when I'm stressing
I'm in the same predicament you really don’t get it
Dealing with the mental issues of big crowd we suck mentality
Please no more advice from the peanut gallery
You up in the nose bleed
I need a front row friend Who actually knows me
Close eyes and please hope to grow me
From a boy to a man switch up the old me
Like damn if I'm fly like the wifi getting Higher than a highschool
Before I die I can't deny That I'm not the guy that girls try to cry to
I made it pretty far past the other side of happiness let me remind you
When I look in the mirror I tell myself that I'm not the guy you wanna lie to

[Pre-Chorus]
The river burst its banks as I cry
These tears will dry
The tears will dry
I will tremble as I speak
The words will run away from me

[Chorus]
Wounds will heal, the scars will fade away
Wounds will heal, the scars will fade away
