You’re not truly happy

Thread Content

Mayday’s track No. 7, “Poems of Post-Adolescence,” features the most heart-wrenching and healing song of all: “You’re Not True Happiness.” From the very first note of the string instrument intro that resonates deep within the soul, listeners are easily drawn into a vortex unique to themselves; they involuntarily plunge into the cold, repressed side of their emotions, falling into a story that belongs only to them. You’re not truly happy ----------Composed by Axin----------- Crying among the crowd, you only wish to become invisible; you will never dream, feel pain, or have your heart stirred again. You’ve made up your mind—you’ve decided. You endure in silence, holding yesterday tightly in your fists. The sweeter the memories, the more painful they are, leaving deep cuts, both deep and shallow, on the palm of your hand. You’re not truly happy; your smile is just a disguise. You’ve decided not to hate anymore, nor to love either. You lock your soul away within a shell that’s forever sealed. The world laughs, so you laugh along with them. When survival is the rule rather than a choice of your own, you walk around with tears in your eyes, stumbling along. You’re not truly happy; your smile is just a disguise. You’ve decided not to hate anymore, nor to love either. You lock your soul away within a shell that’s forever sealed. You’re not truly happy; your wounds never fully heal. I stand beside you, yet it feels like there’s a galaxy between us. Must we really carry these regrets until old age, only to regret it later? You deserve true happiness. You should take off that disguise you’re wearing. Why must you be punished for having lost something? Can’t we end all this sorrow now and start living again? ----------------------------------------------------------- This song was recommended by the famous Haiyou Xiaoyuzhou de Smile, @Xiaoyuzhou_deSmile
