Music, it saved me, but it drives me crazy 'Cause it forces my eyes to take a look and see Got to decide to be happy 'Cause it don't always come naturally Been feelin' like a stranger in my body I haven't been myself in a while, I'm sorry Got to decide to be happy 'Cause it don't always come naturally Flowers don't grow without the rain And goodness don't grow without the pain Flowers don't grow without the rain Goodness don't grow without the pain I've been down on my knees Prayin' to things I don't believe Hopin' that it'll save me So I decide to be happy I've been down on my knees Prayin' to things I don't believe Hopin' that it'll save me So I decide to be happy So I decide to be happy My mind, it can be a scary place at times So I hide under my bed and close all the blinds And I cry, and I cry I waste the day away, so I turn on the lights And I search for a sign or a rhyme or a reason Why I'm unsteady as the seasons 'Cause flowers don't grow without the rain And goodness don't grow without the pain Flowers don't grow without the rain Goodness don't grow without the pain I've been down on my knees Prayin' to things I don't believe Hopin' that it'll save me So I decide to be happy I've been down on my knees Prayin' to things I don't believe Hopin' that it'll save me So I decide to be happy So I decide to be happy If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands If you're sad and you know it, well, now's your chance to dance If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands If you're sad and you know it, well, now's your chance to dance Well, now's your chance to dance, now's your chance to dance I've been down on my knees Prayin' to things I don't believe Hopin' that it'll save me So I decide to be happy Ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh So I decide to be happy
