between deaths arms i mishear
life's mystery to unravel
while the sorrow lays here
deep rooted for me to untangle

eventually, i arrived
a place in between
never thought i'd survive
the torture to be

yet, life goes on
the rose-colored glasses gone
it's the same every year
i say farewells to what we were

but i met her,
they, him and you too
i said happiness
is too great of a burden to bear
it seems bearable if it is with you

i know better now
than to wish for a happy ever after
since this world doesn't allow
ever lasting laughter

no happy ever after
just the next morning to remain
so the sun will rise
and we will try again
