Agnes by Tony Cochran for November 06, 2018

Many are only happy when they are unhappy.

A Niche is an redecorated Ditch, most of the time! So, don’t worry! Be happy!

Hap = Luck

Happy = Lucky

So happiness is superficial and transitory, as opposed to joy. Happiness is like the bright flames of lighter fluid; dazzling and pretty, but soon over and of no real value. Joy is like the hot, dull, long-lasting burn of the charcoal.

I’m only happy when it rains. I’m only happy when it’s complicated. And though I know you can’t appreciate it. I’m only happy when it rains.

You know I love it when the news is bad. Why it feels so good to feel so sad. I’m only happy when it rains

Pour your misery down. Pour your misery down on me. Pour your misery down. Pour your misery down on me.

I’m only happy when it rains. I feel good when things are going wrong. I only listen to the sad, sad songs. I’m only happy when it rains.

I only smile in the dark. My only comfort is the night gone black. I didn’t accidentally tell you that. I’m only happy when it rains.

You’ll get the message by the time I’m through. When I complain about me and you. I’m only happy when it rains.

—Garbage

Hey, I know some people that are only happy when they are unhappy. They would buy Agnes’ book.

Clouded days are beautiful to me, not the bright sun and aching blue sky so many like.
