| Honey, when I'm above the trees
|
| I see this for what it is
|
| But now I'm right down in it, all the years I've given
|
| Is just shit we're dividin' up
|
| Showed you all of my hiding spots
|
| I was dancing when the music stopped
|
| And in the disbelief, I can't face reinvention
|
| I haven't met the new me yet
|
| There'll be happiness after you
|
| But there was happiness because of you
|
| Both of these things can be true
|
| There is happiness
|
| Past the blood and bruise
|
| Past the curses and cries
|
| Beyond the terror in the nightfall
|
| Haunted by the look in my eyes
|
| That would've loved you for a lifetime
|
| Leave it all behind
|
| And there is happiness
|
| Tell me, when did your winning smile
|
| Begin to look like a smirk?
|
| When did all our lessons start to look like weapons
|
| Pointed at my deepest hurt?
|
| I hope she'll be your beautiful fool
|
| Who takes my spot next to you
|
| No, I didn't mean that
|
| Sorry, I can't see facts through all of my fury
|
| You haven't met the new me yet
|
| There'll be happiness after me
|
| But there was happiness because of me
|
| Both of these things, I believe
|
| There is happiness
|
| [Post-Chorus]
|
| In our history, across our great divide
|
| There is a glorious sunrise
|
| Dappled with the flickers of light
|
| From the dress I wore at midnight, leave it all behind
|
| And there is happiness
|
| I can't make it go away by making you a villain
|
| I guess it's the price I paid for seven years in Heaven
|
| And I pulled your body into mine
|
| Every goddamn night, now I get fake niceties
|
| No one teaches you what to do
|
| When a good man hurts you
|
| And you know you hurt him, too
|
| Honey, when I'm above the trees
|
| I see it for what it is
|
| But now my eyes leak acid rain on the pillow where you used to lay your head
|
| After giving you the best I had
|
| Tell me what to give after that
|
| All you want from me now is the green light of forgiveness
|
| You haven't met the new me yet
|
| And I think she'll give you that
|
| There'll be happiness after you
|
| But there was happiness because of you, too
|
| Both of these things can be true
|
| There is happiness
|
| In our history, across our great divide
|
| There is a glorious sunrise
|
| Dappled with the flickers of light
|
| From the dress I wore at midnight, leave it all behind
|
| Oh, leave it all behind
|
| Leave it all behind
|
| And there is happiness |
