Unhappy in Our Own Way – The title is based on Tolstoy's Anna Karenina. "All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way."

Unhappy in Our Own Way

Verse 1
The bottles clinked behind the door,
We swore we wouldn’t fight no more.
Mama prayed, the preacher came,
But shame still sat here just the same.


Pre-Chorus
You can patch the roof, repaint the wall,
One loose brick can bring it all—
Crashing down like thunder gray,
No map out of the maze.


Chorus
All happy families sound the same,
But ours was breaking day by day.
Love’s a house of cards, it shakes—
We were unhappy in our own way.


Verse 2
I chased shadows, needles too,
Thinking I could beat the truth.
We wore our secrets like a chain,
Every link another name.


Pre-Chorus (short)
You can hide the hurt, change your tone,
Every family fights alone.



Chorus
All happy families sound the same,
But ours was breaking day by day.
Love’s a house of cards, it shakes—
We were unhappy in our own way.


Bridge
Till I found a meeting in a church hall,
Folded chairs and a phone call.
Someone said, “Man, you ain’t alone—
Every broken home can still be grown.”


Final Chorus
All happy families sound the same,
But ours is healing day by day.
Love’s a house of cards, but hey—
We can build it stronger anyway.


Outro
We’re learning love… in our own way.
