im happy
too pleased to be alive
do i deserve this happiness?
it�s all so useless
i feel so betrayed
by everyone and everything
i�ve got plenty of things
and still im craving for more

am i evil?
and if not, why do i feel that way?
i see the most horrible things
when i turn on the news everyday
people are dying, they�re starving
families are torn apart
the whole planet is bleeding
and yet im feeling happy

is something wrong with me?
i want to help but i can not
im tired of watching tv
and too ashamed to eat
�cause it�s all so useless
everytime i turn on the news
more and more people are dying
and it feels like nobody cares

and why the hell am i so happy
as i write these words down with ink?
do i deserve this happiness?
that question sure makes me think
