Ellis Ludwig-Leone - Happiness Will Ruin This Place lyrics

A man of mostly bones Found himself in love And didn't know what to do Said “All that I ever want To be two places at once Either way you lose” k**ing off other plans He got into a van And found a place in the country Said “It's all downhill from here Honey, don't be scared I'm ready to be happy” “When I close my eyes I can see your face I wanna know everything about you We could grab our lives And run away Happiness will ruin this place” Here in the present day In a dark cafe There's something large at stake Says “All that I ever want To be two places at once” And pokes around in an ashtray “Honey, can you see Bloodstains on my teeth I'm not the beast I used to be” Silence intervenes She looks up from her tea Says “Everything goes extinct” “When I close my eyes I don't see your face I don't know anything about you Oh it's no surprise You lost your way Happiness will ruin this place” Followed by a brood Of children through the zoo A wonder he can recognize There's a moment where he sees In the chimpanzees Sympathetic eyes “The problem that you have You're living in a trap Regret it eats away at you Two places or one There's nowhere to run Either way you lose I could close my eyes But it's all too late They don't anything about me Oh it's no surprise I lost my way Happiness will ruin this place”
