Happy Ever After - Corey Smith

Lately I?

ve been singing the blues for no apparent reason

I lay around on the couch piss and moan dragging everyone down

Maybe its always been in my blood stream, maybe daddy was right when he

Told me, boy your just like you mom keep your head up your ass all the time

I feel like a fool, kicking my self black and blue for the choices I?

ve made

Down and out, stuck in the muck sinking fast getting, worse every day

Good lord want you throw me a life line, a ray of hope in the sunshine

Want you help me to find my happy ever after amen

Lately taking pills by the handful, doctor told me I?

d need?

em

Yeah he wrote me note said I hope you have a hell of time

But they?

re too good fill me up with a warm rush the news paper don?

t?

upset

Me as much, they ain?

t easy to swallow but its better than sleeping all day

I?

m high as a kite, at least for time being killing the pain in my heart

Letting go of the guilt and the shame that are tearing my life apart

Good lord want you keep me from crashing in any way, shape, form or

Fashion, can?

t you fill my prescription happy ever after amen

Bridge

Have mercy on me, hear my pitiful prayer, I need your sympathy, cause it

Feels like nobody cares about me since I quit taking care of myself

Oh I am tired, tired of the struggle and tired of the that lies I?

ve told

But I am scared, scared that my story for give me will never unfold

Good lord, I?

m not much for confessions, but if you can cure my depression I

swear Ill

Better

Happy ever after

Happy ever after

Happy ever after amen
