City and Colour - Happiness by the Kilowatt Lyrics

So this is continuous happiness
You know, I always imagined it something more
With the right drapes, the right paints
The right frames, this could really work
What a great day to spend indoors

[Chorus]
Wake, wake up, wake, wake up
Wake, wake up, wake, wake up
Wake, wake up, wake, wake up
Wake, wake up, wake, wake up

In a hail of sparks
And a tangle of wires
Everything went wrong

So where has all the day gone?
And why are my lungs aching when I breathe?
Is there something wrong with the heat? Why am I so cold?
And my heart feels sick and it hurts when I speak
And this is not what I hoped for

[Chorus]

Was this what we hoped for?
Was this what we hoped for?
Was this what we, what we hoped for?
Was this what we hoped for?
Was this what we hoped for?
Was this?
