SHOCKINGLY HAPPY

All I've ever known
is that little black cloud hanging over my head
Sitting on my pity throne
I've gone through life less alive than dead
There's comfort in despair
So I'm the most content person there could ever be
Though I act like I don't care
Something's come quite clear to me
Chorus
I'm shockingly happy
Thriving on my misery
Shockingly happy
& just between you & me...
I can't help but smile when I'm feeling this way
And this pit that I'm in gets deeper each day
Shockingly happy
Cause the darkness sets me free
There was a time
When I'd fight to pull myself out of this hole
Such a weak little mind
Ruled by the fear of being out of control
So when I find myself slipping back
Into waging this war I could never win
I remind myself I'm better than that
And then I thoroughly enjoy giving in
Because...
(repeat Chorus)
When I'm mad
and sad...
YOU KNOW I'M REALLY GLAD..
(repeat Chorus)
