Happiness By The Kilowatt

City and Colour
(originally by Alexisonfire)

So this is continuous happiness
You know, I always
Imagined it something more
With the paint, the right shades
The right frames, this could really work
What a great day to spend indoors
So wake, wake up
Just wake, wake up
So where has all the day gone?
And why are my lungs aching when I breathe?
Is there something wrong with the heat?
Why am I so cold?
My heart feels sick
And it hurts when I speak
So wake, wake up
Just wake, wake up
Was this what we hoped for?
Was this what we hoped for?

The 'live' version of this song is powerful beyond measure. Dallas Green puts everything he has into this piece and I have put it here partly because of that, more so as it says what I am unable to...a serenade if you will...
