Rhymes of the Heart

What Is Happy

They say I should be happy
but there's sadness all around
My heart is ever searching
but happy can't be found

There's children being taken
abuse is raging on
Now tell me what is happy
when this is going on

They say I should be happy
but the word isn't there
I'm searching high and low
can't find happy anywhere

There's homeless families in the street
know place to call their own
now tell me what is happy
when this is going on

They say I should be happy
it's such a simple word
I am forever listening
but happy isn't heard

Theres death on every corner
your not safe in your own home
now tell me what is happy
when this is going on

They say I should be happy
I hope someday to be
When the evil of this world
has fled no more to see

They say I should be happy
I pray both day and night
for happy just to find me
and make this world alright.
