Not Allowed to be Happy

Verse 1 We've got a lot in common, more than just our scars We're good at hiding bruises, lying about who we are You and me, we’re masters of the mask But the pain we share is the only thing that lasts Chorus Tell me, are we running, or are we just scared? Caught in a cycle, but too afraid to care We could break away, but would it even be fair? We don't think we're allowed to be happy, is it wrong that we're a pair? Verse 2 We talk about the future like it’s some kind of joke I see the doubt in your eyes, but I’m too afraid to poke The holes in our story, the cracks in our glass We’ve both been shattered, and we're breaking too fast Chorus Tell me, are we running, or are we just scared? Caught in a cycle, but too afraid to care We could break away, but would it even be fair? We don't think we're allowed to be happy, is it wrong that we're a pair? Bridge The nights are getting longer, the silence is so loud We dream of something better, but it's buried in the clouds If we take a step forward, will we fall or just be found? Is it worth the risk when all we know is down? Chorus Tell me, are we running, or are we just scared? Caught in a cycle, but too afraid to care We could break away, but would it even be fair? We don't think Outro We stand on the edge, looking into the dark Holding each other, afraid of the spark If we jump together, will we finally see? Maybe happiness was never meant for you and me
