Happy Ever After

Verse 1
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

Chorus
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

Verse 2
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

Chorus
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
