All I need Is Joy
Stranded, lonely, scared on this deserted island.
No friends or loved ones to be found.
No one to care no one to share my feelings with.
I could just bang my head on a coconut to stop this pain.
This pain, this loneliness,
it’s like a King it wants to forever reign.
Oh why, oh why can I just not break away.
All I need is Joy but I can’t seem to find it.
I can’t have joy when there is none to be found.
How can I find joy in a place like this?
How can I find joy when I’m full of depression,
I’m stressing over this lesson I’m trying to teach myself.
But if I would just look around,
I would realize.
You can’t just find joy you have to make it.
So, I carry a smile and just wander throughout the island,
for a while all those stranded lonely, and scared thoughts start to seep away.
Oh how I want to sing
OH HAPPY DAY!!!!!
The sun is shining!, and I’m still breathing.
If it weren’t for joy I don’t think I would be.
