Lyrics :
Happy 

You are blind 
But you can see
You are deaf 
But  you can hear
You stay silent
But you can talk
You can feel
But pretend that you dont

Your happy just to look the other way
Your happy to pretend that you don't hear
Your happy to keep your silence
You dont care and thats oh so clear.

You are blind 
But you can see
You are deaf 
But  you can hear
You stay silent
But you can talk
You can feel
But pretend that you dont

You hide away behind the walls you built 
Let someone else be the sacrifice 
Safe In the knowledge that it isnt you
Let someone else pay the price.

break

Your happy just to look the other way
Your happy to pretend that you don't hear
Your happy to keep your silence
You dont care and thats oh so clear.

So put the gun in anothers hand
So long as you dont take no blame
So long as there no blood on hands
You have no tears you have no shame 
Your Complicite by your silence 
Complicite in what you don't do
Complicite when you turn away
Because it's better them then you.

(ORPIN2025)

Happy

Maybe my memory is plainly not what it used to be,
But I don’t believe I’ve ever seen it this way.
Right is wrong, and wrong is right, up is down and black is white.
Am I losing it? Well, I might just be.

Am I wrong, or is this just plain crazy?
Doncha know, something’s gotta change.
You know it’s bad when everything gets hazy,
And normal starts looking strange.

Folks you thought you knew so well, found a hole and down they fell
Still they think they’re doing swell.
Politicians crossing lines; sure, it happens all the time,
Now it happens in prime time.

Am I wrong, or is this just plain crazy?
Doncha know, something’s gotta change.
You know it’s bad when everything gets hazy,
And normal starts looking strange.

And the stories keep on coming, so you file ‘em.
If they’re true or not is of no consequence
If the inmates will be running the asylum, Maybe Mexico will buy that fence.

You believe what you believe, and pass along what you receive.
If you think it’s gonna help you side.
Sometimes what we think we see is just altered reality.
But sometimes it is a bald-faced lie.

Am I wrong, or is this just plain crazy?
Doncha know, something’s gotta change.
You know it’s bad when everything gets hazy,
And normal starts looking strange.

Stranger than the sport that they call curling.
Stranger than a duck-billed platypus.
Stranger than an evening with Rod Serling.
I wonder if there’s hope for us.

Lyrics:
Fifteen alarms, I'm covered in sleep 
Don't be alarmed, the city's in sheets 
Swore off yourself when I packed up and left from your street 
But I've never felt so clenched in your teeth 

Come in the basement, 
Few dozen sets of eyes 
You just want your saving soul to fill a hole in mine 
You just want your saving soul to shine 

Fifteen alarms. Fifteen different tones. 
I need something more. I'll sleep through my phone 
I don't want to be just a kid who can't wake up alone, no.

Different Tones

you knocked me down before i knew what hit me
a feeling that still haunts me to this day
i'm over it but sometimes you still get to me
and i just wish that i could make you go away

your eyes like bullets dodge my stare
my mind is blank that you're even here
cuz it's been a while since i haven't seen your
face through a screen
emotions change from shocked to scared
you run a hand through your hair
so i say "hey"
just to set the tone

so here we are
still standing tall
explain to me why i still
even care at all
hide your face
i'll take the blame
pretend that you don't even
recognize my name
but i know you do
and you know too

order my food and keep my calm
but this all feels so fucking wrong
the air is filled with awkward laughing
and my hands aren't shaking from the cold
i want to tell you to leave
i want to tell you to stay
i want to tell you that i still think of you some days
but they aren't good thoughts

so here we are
still standing tall
explain to me why i still
even care at all
hide your face
i'll take the blame
pretend that you don't even
recognize my name
but i know you do
and you know too
so why can’t we work this out
i’m ready to forgive you

i knocked you down before you knew what hit you
a feeling that still haunts me to this day
you're over it but sometimes i still get to you
and you just wish that you could make me go away

peace, love, and los burritos (SUPER DEMO)
