Rius Isonder - Song of the Sea Lyrics

Are you happy now, are you ȟ̴̯o̵͕͑p̸̖̀è̸̖f̸̢̏u̶̮͆l̴̡̈́ ̷̣͐n̵͈̈́ǒ̴̺w̴̘͒

Seeing shadows where there's only bright
Another me that could have been tonight
A burning flame that's now failed to ignite
(And still the world just keeps moving on)

To fully live without fear of the light
To give all with no return in sight
See the ocean crash down into white
(And yet the world just keeps moving on)

A wave of opportunity missed
Surely there's more to life than this

And all the while a solemn voice speaks...

Are you happy now, are you hopeful now?
Are you happy now, are you hopeful now?

Minutes wasted, frozen up in time
A list of things that could have made it right
The scattered fragments of another life
(Your stories told just keep moving on)

A tiny glimmer in a darkened sky
A burden brought by no one else than I
The ebb and flow of waves of countless lies
(The world you made just keeps moving on)

A heart that's beating only for a wish
Surely there's more to be than this

And all the while a rising voice sings... (pick up the broken pieces)

Are you happy now, are you hopeful now?
Are you happy now, are you hopeful now?

Just one spark
To break the dark, a single tiny light
If that's all it takes
Maybe I could brighten up a starless night
(Like they did mine)

(Are you happy now?
Are you hopeful now?)
The meaning has always been there for the ones who could see
(Are you happy now?
Can you hear me now?)
The song of the sea's flowing louder for those who are free
