A Window Shopper For Happiness

They're unsatisfied with it all can't find that inner peace
So when it comes to their dreams they desist and cease
Instead they begin to look in your direction
Judging their lives through you is their obsession
Everything they do they try to do better than you
Because your life is perfect and to them its too true
To them it's a window to a time they can't see from
Waiting for realities that they know they won't see come
Shopping for Happiness without buying the goods
Wish you could see the beauty that I could
But instead you see your flaws and magnify them to the sky
And you're looking at me out of the corner of your eye
To see if I'll ask if you're okay or any thoughts of advice
Though to know if you're struggling they'll pay any price
It's not even the enemy you see that shows up daily
It's the friend that really believes that your joy is their failing
Shopping for Happiness without putting the effort to try
And you're wondering why you're living this lie
There isn't a price on happiness yet you're willing to pay it
If you're not that happy for me why don't you just say it
I wish you can take something from the moral of the scribe
Instead of taking these words back analyzing them with the tribe
Take it for yourself and learn from the words
Stop shopping for Happiness it's free from the birds
