HAPPY (IF IT KILLS ME)
(Written by Rachel Williams & Angela Kaset)

Oh in my quest for happiness
I wished for the best, but I settled for less
And I fell in love with the idea of
Just being together, someone else would make it better

But that didn't save me
'Cause I lost way more than I found
And slowly but surely, I'm comin back around

Chorus:
And maybe my smile will fool my heart
And work it's way down to the broken parts
I'm holdin' onto hope and hopin' it heals
I'm cryin' my tears down to a few
Forgiving myself for what I've put me through
'Cause I'm gonna be happy
Yeah, I can see me happy
Happy if it kills me

I held tight to my pride, I felt justified
I thought my anger was what kept me alive
Oh but misery stole best of me
I caused my heartache, gotta sweep up what I've let break

And it's not as hard as I made it out to be
So I'm trusting just enough to make believe

Chorus

And I'm finally starting to see a little light
Letting me know I'm gonna be alright
'Cause I'm gonna be happy
Yeah, I can see me happy
I'm gonna be happy
Happy if it kills me
