We Are Unhappy - Bonnie "Prince" Billy

Nothing is better

Nothing is best

We are unhappy

We are unblessed

We are unfound

We are unseen

Nothing is coming

Nothing is clean

Earth it is shaking, people have fled

And lord she is taking the eyes from the dead

Demonized body, exorcised mind

Pieces of kindness exchanged in kind

Nothing is better

Nothing is best

We are unhappy

We are unblessed

Mind it is going

Faith is destroyed

Emptiness showing God’s cruelty deployed

Lovers have left

Friends close their eyes

Children bereft

We all are unwise

Nothing is better

Nothing is best

We are unhappy

We are unblessed

We are unhappy
