| Years of rest |
| No resolution |
| I sat back |
| In deep confusion |
| Why must this |
| Happen to me |
| Why must it happen |
| At all? |
|
| Play me a song |
| That's truly happy |
| A film without melancholy |
| Some novel without an arc |
| Or a dog who hates to bark |
| Something good |
| Something good |
| Must happen |
| Somewhere |
| To someone |
|
| I thought I heard a bird singing |
| Through the city sirens |
| It was the faintest sound |
| In the loudest noise |
| And I couldn't help but admire 'em |
| I've had a feeling of unimportance |
| Simmer through my life |
| So when I hear a whistle |
| Pierce through a noisy night |
| I think |
|
| Something good |
| Something good |
| Must happen |
| Somewhere |
| To someone |
| Something good |
| Something good |
| Something good |
| Must happen somewhere to someone |
|
| When it does |
| I wanna read it in the papers |
| I wanna read it off your face |
| A sad story with a good ending |
| Some temporary faith |
| Like some things do resolve |
| And some people are born happy |
| And some families don't yell |
| And the bad men do go to jail |
| And the lawyer who called me last night |
| Meant it when he said |
| It's over, girl, you're free now |
| You really did give it your best |
| Something good |
| And I think |
|
| Something good |
| Something good |
| Must happen |
| Somewhere |
| To someone |
|
| Something good |
| Something good |
| Must happen |
| Somewhere |
| To someone |
|
| And if the birds are singing |
| Maybe I should speak |
| I've been quiet for so long |
| Because I couldn't leave |
| Years of rest |
| No resolution |
| My legs are sound asleep |
| It won't be a perfect execution |
| But I'm free like a bird |
| So yes |
| I will use 'em |
| Cause |
|
| Something good |
| Oh, something good |
| Must happen |
| Somewhere |
| To someone |
| To someone |
|
| Something good |
| Oh, something |
| Must happen |
| Somewhere to someone |
|
| If not anyone |
|
| To someone |
| To someone |
| To someone |
| To someone |
| If not anyone |
| If not anyone |
| Don't care who it is |
| Don't care who it is |
|
| And I'll read it in the novels |
| And I'll see it in the movies |
| And I'll watch them on TV |
| And I'll save that in my memories |
| Yes, I don't care |
| Something good |
| Must happen to |
| Someone |
|
