Should I be assumed happy
Should I, because I have two legs that can run away
when I can't face the truth
Should I, because I have two arms that raise up in defense
to fend off what I don't understand
Should I, because I have eyes that only see what they want to
Should I, because I have a heart that pumps
even though it's been broken
Should I, because I have ears that hear only what they want to
Should I, because I have hands that can write
Should I
If I was cripple, should I be assumed unhappy
Should I, if I could not run from my problems
Should I, if I could not fend off those that want to hurt me
Should I, if I were blind and couldn't see you in front of me
Should I, if I were deaf and never heard the sound
of your disappointment in me.
Everything I hear is nothing at all
Should I be unhappy then
Should I be assumed happy
If I were rich would I be happy then
If the world were my oyster, would I be happy then
If you loved me like I loved you, would I
Should I be happy if I found as genie in a bottle
Should I be happy then if the genie gave me one wish
Should I wish to be happy
Could I know what that is
I wish then
I should.
Be happy.
