Happiness is but a lie.
A pot of gold waiting
Seated at the end of a rainbow
Unattainable, teasing for eternity
Relishing in our anger,
In our sadness and misery.

It wait for failure
It yearns for pain
It is not but a demon
With a painted mask

This gilded gold
Forsaken coin
Marked by a kiss
Burns at the touch

It waits for failure
It yearns for pain
It is not but a demon
With a painted mask

It deals out fog
This gas that leaves quick
Leaves us dying
Dying for more

It waits for failure
It yearns for pain

It is not but a demon
With a painted mask.

Signed, a Happy Man.
