happiness

  activity's killing the actor
  and a cop's standing out in the road turning traffic away
  there wass nothing she could do until after
  when his body'd been buried below
  way back in the day
  oh my, nothing else could've been done
  he made his life a lie
  so he might never have to know anyone
  made his life the lie you know
  i told him he shouldn't upset her
  and that he'd only be making it worse
  involving somebody else
  but i knew that he'd never forget her
  while her memory worked in reverse
  to keep her safe from herself
  and oh my, nothing else could've been done
  she made her life a lie
  so she might never have to know anyone
  made her life the lie you know
  what i used to be will pass away and then you'll see
  that all i want now is happiness for you and me
