Will I always be a means to an end?

Refuge taken when the panic sets in

'Cause I offer you a shelter from yourself

When you wish that you could be somebody else

And it all feels so wrong

Was hope the star I wished on all along?

I have been orbiting happiness all this time

As our celestial bodies are intertwined

It's a glory, a gravity I never could find

Is happiness something I will be orbiting all my life?

(Your touch is buried in my skin like an axe) Your touch is buried in my skin like an axe

Biting my tongue and then it bit me back

So I hold you close enough to know

That I could lose myself and be all on my own

I have been orbiting happiness all this time

As our celestial bodies are intertwined

It's a glory, a gravity I never could find

Is happiness something I will be orbiting all my life?

Will I bend, or will I break?

Am I misaligned, another flawed design?

Do I love what I've become?

Take the flesh from my soul, forfeit my skin and bones

I will bend until I break

Was it all for nothing?

I have been orbiting happiness all this time

As our celestial bodies are intertwined

It's a glory, a gravity I never could find

Is happiness something I will be orbiting all my life?
