The pursuit of happiness is futile
For happiness lies within
To endeavour to find it is infantile
For it's not contained in a tin
Another cannot provide happiness
For it is a state of being
It is a choice to shed that sadness
By new perspective seeing
To live in perpetual happiness
Seems an impossible thing
But to live in perpetual sadness
Makes life unnecessarily burdening
The pursuit of happiness is futile
For happiness lies within
And sadness follows you mile after mile
Until to happiness you give in.
