Poster Child For Happiness

I never claimed to be a savior

I never claimed a whole hell of a lot

Look around your cluttered bedroom

At all the things i haven't got

I might have claimed that i could save her

But it looks like i was wrong

I look around her cluttered bedroom

And wonder where she's gone

Sad can't last forever

Cos nothing ever does

To me you're more than just another face in the crowd

And i don't want to whisper but i can't say this all out loud

You know the sun is always shining above his bed of clouds

And it's the prettiest up here when it's raining downtown

Of course i wish that i could save her

And so do all of you

And we try our best every day

But what the hell can we do

We're all pretending we can save her

And make her live her own life

But the day i even close my eyes

Is the day that she'll pick up that knife

Sad can't last forever cos nothing ever does

And we can't be together

If there's no such thing as love
