Happiness Is an Option Lyrics

It is not easy
It is not easyLooking from a window
At the back of a house
At the edge of a town
It's grayLike the day when I lost it
Clouds overhead
I talked to a flower
That was almost deadMy body a prison
Why did I do it?
Someone told me not to
But still went through itIt is not easy
But don't give up now
It is not easy
Happiness is an optionNeeded somewhere to clear my head
Find some strength, a warmer bed
Maximum love in a minimal world
I'd never achieved it but then I believed itSo when I lost it, how?
I'm not sure now

It was a strange feeling
Like a law repealing itselfIt is not easy
But don't give up now
It is not easy
Happiness is an optionIt is not easy
But don't give up now
It is not easy
Happiness is an optionI can wake up in the morning
And not believe what I see
Look in the mirror
And think if that's really meI don't think I suit my face
It's not a catastrophe
It's more a philosophyLike the Russians wondering why
We're born under a blue sky
But die in a dark forestIt is not easy
But don't give up now
It is not easy
Happiness is an optionIt is not easy
But don't give up now
It is not easy
Happiness is an optionThis is neither old nor new
It's always, forever
Between sense and ambition
Pleasure and decisionWe have to make a choice
What do we want?
Everyone is singing
"War, what is it good for?"
While planning the next one?I don't need to win
You don't have to lose
We can choose
Happiness is an optionIt is not easy
But don't give up now
It is not easy
Happiness is an optionIt isn't easy, the war within us
But it gets easier, the more you learn
I don't need to win, you don't have to lose
We can choose, happiness is an optionIt is not easy
But don't give up now
It is not easy
Happiness is an optionYou don't have to lose
We can choose
Happiness is an option
