the truth can hurt you
or the truth can change you
what will truth do to you
I just wanna be happy
but if I keep on doing the things
that keep on bringing me pain
there's no one else I can blame
if I'm not happy
wasted time but now I can see
the biggest enemy it was me
so I'm not happy
cry yourself to sleep
shouting raise your hands
it won't change a thing child until you understand
if you're tired of being the same
if you're tired of things not changing
it's time for you to get out the way
don't get stuck on how you feel
say Jesus take the wheel
he knows the road that you need to take
(but it only works if)
if you wanna be happy
don't you wanna be happy
I just wanna be happy
but if I keep on giving my heart
for people to tear apart
the healing will never start
so I can be happy
will I ever be happy
cry yourself to sleep
shouting raise your hands
it won't change a thing child until you understand
if you're tired of being the same
if you're tired of things not changing
it's time for you to get out the way
don't get stuck on how you feel
say Jesus take the wheel
he knows the road that you need to take
it's so easy to complain
addicted to the pain
you give your heart they push it away
Jesus knows just how you feel
just let him take the wheel
the love you need he already gave
do you wanna be happy
I just wanna be happy
lemme hear say yeah, yeah, yeah x4
if you're tired of being the same
if you're tired of things not changing
it's time for you to get out the way
don't get stuck on how you feel
say Jesus take the wheel
he knows the road that you need to take
it's so easy to complain
addicted to the pain
you give your heart they push it away
Jesus knows just how you feel
just let him take the wheel
the love you need he already gave
(but the question is)
do you wanna be happy
I just wanna be happy
