lyrics
*Writing on the pc, quietly practicing lyrics*
The voice: Are you happy?
The Artist: Not when you’re talking to me…
The voice: I’m serious, are you happy?
The Artist: *sighs* is anybody in this world truly happy?
The voice: That’s not an answer, that’s another question. It’s a fairly simple question I’m asking you. Are you…
The Artist: No, okay, I’m not happy. Is that what you wanted to hear?
*Silence*
The voice: Why are you not happy?
The Artist: Do you ever stop asking stupid questions all the time?
The voice: No, now answer me.
The Artist: I don’t know alright. I don’t know anything, I’m a dumb motherfucker who’ll never be happy because I’m always think about everything I’m doing instead of just enjoying life.
The voice: So you do know.
The Artist: What?
The voice: You might not know what you know, but you do know it.
The Artist: That doesn’t make any sense.
The voice: Maybe not… do you still feel like you’re left in the dark?
The Artist: I don’t know.
The voice: Cause I think you’ve found the light.
The Artist: Yea, cool, whatever, will you shut up? I’m trying to finish this album here.
The voice: What’s it called?
The Artist: It’s called mind your own fucking business.
The voice: *laughs* I will do that then.
*Long silence*
The Artist: It’s called “All Alone”. It means a great deal to me.
The voice: I see. Good luck with making it then. And I’ll leave you for now
The Artist: Will you be back sometime?
The voice: I don’t know. But I do know you don’t need a dark voice in your head, when you yourself, have found the light.
The voice: Are you happy?
The Artist: Not when you’re talking to me…
The voice: I’m serious, are you happy?
The Artist: *sighs* is anybody in this world truly happy?
