Happy Family

歌詞

Left and right, they're calling me back home And I've heard their cries I've felt it in my bones Left and right, they choke me tight I'm overworn and out of sight I've heard their cries I've felt it in my bones Been searching for a long time, in this town We're looking for a goldmine So we can get out To find a place, or waste away Another day that goes by Another card, we know we should be grateful But sometimes it's hard, we're so alone But it's not for long Well maybe we were disavowed Careful what you wish for now Nothing lasts forever Time will always take its toll And if a broken home is on the shelf You know what we should ask ourselves Were we ever happy acting in a family role Been dreaming of those bright lights, in the city Waking with a cold fright Oh what a pity, a bad nights sleep The fourth this week You're longing for a partner To get you through, wishing that in time You'll find someone to hold onto to But maybe we were disavowed Careful what you wish for now Nothing lasts for ever Time will always take its toll And if a broken home is on the shelf You know what we should ask ourselves Were we ever happy acting in a family role Heavens have you seen The news that's on the screen It's all violence, heartbreak and misery Heavens have you seen What they have done to me I'm a hollow shell from the grim 90's Maybe we were disavowed Careful what you wish for now Nothing lasts forever, time will always take its toll And if a broken home is on the shelf We know what we should ask ourselves Were we ever happy acting in a family role?
