lyrics

happiness
comes in shells
you can’t tell
when it hits
pleasantly
blown to bits

think love
it's gone
action changes
spinning you
every way
wondering
how it ends

wish these emotions
would bend or even age
you’re back in sixth grade
scared of what to say

think about hopes lost
in the meantime
remember my friend
catching air

bouncing his face
off the stop sign
love on the beat
like Christian Sinclair

happiness
swallows time
dancing in mind
touch it lightly
you little butterfly

think plans
they’re done
getting some
of what you want
rest haunts you for life

drink cos it’s never gone
feeling wrong
betting it all
on the safe bet

some days you'll find me
counting quarters and dimes
praying somehow
the check gets there

other days you’ll find me
at the airport on time
in an unwritten novel
by Christian Sinclair
