that happy is a lie

i'm the outsider
the only one that's not happy

they all say i'm the only one not happy
they don't understand why

i don't understand them
how can they be happy

they say they will change
they haven't

they say they want me happy
i don't see it

i'm not happy and they know that
but they dont change for me
because they're all happy the way things are now

i'm not happy
they have to change
but they won't

And because i love my father
i won't make them leave
because he'd be hurt

and for me to be happy they'd have to go
but i'll keep them here
if that's what it takes to keep my dad happy

because it'll hurt me more
if i were the reason my dad were sad
so i'll deal with all of this crap
so they can stay happy
while i just pretend
because no one's going to change
everything will stay the same

they don't know anything about me
or my borther
or my father
but they'll stay
because they make them happy

that happy is a lie

    well jackson, just think about it this way. you've only got a couple more months before you're out of there and off to college. that's the way i look at my home situation. just try to deal with it until then. and if you ever need to get out of the house for a few hours or a few days or whatever, you know your friends are here to take you in. well, if the rest of them aren't, you know i am. just text me or call if you ever need anything.
