joy thief

We met outside the crowded bar
Her eyes were bright, her stare was dark
The words she spoke were straight from heart
The more we talked, the more I thought

What if she's just what I wanna be?
Maybe she's just the happier version of me
It's tough living right next to all of your dreams
It's tough living when my life is sitting next to me

You went outside of your own accord
You got a drink, you watched him pour
He said something about getting back from a tour
I bet his music is so much better than yours

What if he's just what I wanna be?
Maybe he's just the happier version of me
It's tough living right next to all of your dreams
It's tough living when my life is sitting next to me

It's not enough to sit and sulk
Get back to work, you don't get time off
I hate my boss and he hates me too
I'm self-employed and I'm self-entombed

What if he's just what I wanna be?
Maybe he's just the happier version of me
It's tough living right next to all of your dreams
It's tough living when my life is sitting next to me
What if I'm not what I wanna be?
Maybe there's no happier version of me
It's tough living right next to all of my dreams
It's tough living when my life is looking down at me
