Woke up to the sound of the city
Concrete jungle, yeah, it's looking kinda gritty
Another day, another fight with myself
Battling the demons, keep 'em locked on the shelf
I put on a smile, yeah, it's all for show
Behind these eyes, there's a storm you don't know
Lost in the noise, drowning in the pain
Chasing after shadows in the pouring rain
But tonight, I swear I'll make a change
Gonna break these chains, escape this cage
I wanna feel alive, no more lies
Look into the mirror, see it in my eyes
I just wanna be happy
Find a way to break free
Living life on my terms
Watch the past as it burns
I just wanna be happy
Hear the laughter, feel the breeze
No more tears, no more fears
Leave behind these wasted years
Pacing these streets with my heart on my sleeve
Dreams in my pocket, yeah, I'm ready to leave
Running from the ghosts that haunt my nights
Looking for a sign in the neon lights
I've been down, I've been broken
Every word left unspoken
But I got this fire burning inside
Won't let the darkness be my guide
Tonight, I swear I'll make a change
Gonna break these chains, escape this cage
I wanna feel alive, no more lies
Look into the mirror, see it in my eyes
I just wanna be happy
Find a way to break free
Living life on my terms
Watch the past as it burns
I just wanna be happy
Hear the laughter, feel the breeze
No more tears, no more fears
Leave behind these wasted years
Standing on the edge, looking down
Ready to fly, no longer bound
Spread my wings, touch the sky
Say goodbye to the nights I cried
I'll find my peace, my serenity
Rewrite my story, find my destiny
Oh-oh Oh-oh
Oh-oh Oh-oh
I just wanna be happy
Find a way to break free
Living life on my terms
Watch the past as it burns
I just wanna be happy
Hear the laughter, feel the breeze
No more tears, no more fears
Leave behind these wasted years
Yeah, I just wanna be happy,
Feel the sun, taste the rain
Every scar a part of my story
In this life, I'll find my glory
Happy... yeah, happy
