Happiness Writes White Lyrics - Harvey Danger

Ariella, 7:30, I don't want to get up yet 

Listen to the morning music, cursing the alarm you set 

As you know, I've never been a praying man 

I don't need a God to make me feel all right 

But if you wonder why I never wrote you a song 

It's because happiness writes white 

I try to put it into words, but the words just sound like mistakes 

I try to find a set of chords, but you know how long that takes me 

I don't trust my fingers, I don't trust my tongue 

The work is too important and we're no longer young, after all 

When I consider what you put up with, I'm amazed you still have skin 

When I consider what you mean to me, it's everything 

It's everything 

Ariella, 11:30, I don't want to go to sleep 

Turn the TV off already, curse the hours we have to keep 

As you know, I've never been a confident man 

I've been in the tall grass all my life 

Until you came along
