1. Joy (song)
verse 1
Joy is as simple as saying hello
to a new way of living that I've always known
Deep down inside me, just waiting to spring
forth for any occasion that worry will bring
chorus
Life's a new disaster
Every morning that comes
and it just moves faster
So don't wait for the sun to rise
Joy isn't the absence of pain; it's just a lifeline
Joy will permeate and liberate
and I will rest cause joy is finally mine.
verse 2
A choice of acceptance, of saying "okay"
to my heart-hungry demons and the games that they'll play
A blind, trusting faith that they'll never win
Lets me breathe in redemption and breathe out my sin
chorus
Life's a new disaster
Every morning that comes
and it just moves faster
So don't wait for the sun to rise
Joy isn't the absence of pain; it's just a lifeline
Joy will permeate and liberate
and I will rest cause joy is finally mine.
bridge
Whatever comes, it will stay
Though buried deep
and hid away
(x4)
outro
And it will rise just when I think it can't
It's just been laying low and dormant
I find it's as simple as saying hello
to a joy that's been there rooted deep in my soul.
