Happiness - Reeve Carney

Staring down a memory through an empty bottle

Run away the way your daddy used to do

Hit your sweetheart like your hero hit your mother

In the end it’s carried on because of you

All we’re looking for is happiness

Happiness and a place to be

Sunni children orphaned by a human bomber

It keep their fathers' wounds and fear and hatred, too

Quoting scripture while they kill their foreign brothers

Can’t you see they’re really just like me and you?

All they’re looking for is happiness

Happiness and a place to be

Now we’re left to face the world we have created

Tryin' to blame it on the men we never knew

If you want it any different for our children

As far as I can see, it’s up to me an you

All we’re looking for is happiness

Happiness and a place to be

All I’m looking for is happiness

Happiness and the place to be
