What would you say to me If I told you I had a dream? If I told you everything Would you tell me to go back to sleep?
Take a look in these tired eyes They're coming back to life I know I can change, got hope in my veins I'm telling you, I ain't going back to the pain
Can I be happy now? Can I let my breath out? Let me believe, I'm building a dream Don't try to drag me down
I just wanna scream out loud Can I be happy now? Went down on my knees, I learned how to bleed I'm turning my world around
Can I be happy now? Can I break free somehow? I just wanna live again, love again Pick my pride up off the ground
I'm ready to pick a fight Crawl out of the dark to shine a light I ain't throwing stones, got sins of my own Ain't everybody just trying to find a way home
Can I be happy now? Can I let my breath out? Let me believe, I'm building a dream Don't try to drag me down
I just wanna scream out loud Can I be happy now? Went down on my knees, I learned how to bleed I'm turning my world around
You're born then you die, it's all gone in a minute I ain't looking back 'cause I don't wanna miss it You better live now 'cause no one's gonna get out alive, alive
Can I be happy now? Can I let my breath out? Let me believe, I'm building a dream Don't try to drag me down
I just wanna scream out loud Can I be happy now? Been down on my knees, I learned how to bleed I'm turning my world around Can I be happy now?
Ohh, I'm turning my world around Can I be happy now?
