Happy Now

What would you say to me If I told you I had a dream If I told you everything Would you tell me to go back to sleep Take a look in these tired eyes They're coming back to life I know I can change, got hope in my veins I tell you I ain't going back to the pain Can I be happy now? Can I let my breath out Let me believe I'm building a dream Don't try to drag me down I just wanna scream out loud Can I be happy now? Been down on my knees I learned how to bleed I'm turning my world around Can I be happy now Can I break free somehow I just wanna live again Love again Pick my pride up off of the ground I'm ready to pick a fight Crawl out of the dark to shine a light I ain't throwing stones, got sins of my own Ain't everybody just trying to find a way home Can I be happy now? Can I let my breath out Let me believe I'm building a dream Don't try to drag me down I just wanna scream out loud Can I be happy now? Been down on my knees I learned how to bleed I'm turning my world around You're born then you die, it's all gone in a minute I ain't looking back, 'cause I don't want to miss it You better live now Cause no one's going to get out alive Can I be happy now? Can I let my breath out Let me believe I'm building a dream Don't try to drag me down I just wanna scream out loud Can I be happy now? Been down on my knees I learned how to bleed I'm turning my world around Can I be happy now? I'm turning my world around Can I be happy now?
