Happiness
Marcus Layton Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Happiness seems to be loneliness
And loneliness chilled my world
How could you guess, when you're only thinking of yourself?
And how you looked to other girls
Happiness seems to be loneliness
And loneliness chilled my world
How could you guess, when you're only thinking of yourself?
And how you looked to other girls

Happiness seems to be loneliness
And loneliness chilled my world
How could you guess, when you're only thinking of yourself?
And how you looked to other girls

Happiness (happiness)
And loneliness (loneliness)
How could you guess
When you're only thinking of yourself?
And how you looked to other girls
Happiness (happiness)
And loneliness (loneliness)
How could you guess
When you're only thinking of yourself?
And how you looked to other girls

Happiness seems to be loneliness
And loneliness chilled my world
How could you guess, when you're only thinking of yourself?
And how you looked to other girls
Boy, you nasty, boy, nasty is what I see
Disrespect, see me in your dreams
Can't you see what kind of man you used to be
But now you're livin' on your own

Happiness (happiness)
And loneliness
When you're only thinking of yourself?
And how you looked to other girls
Happiness (happiness)
And loneliness (loneliness)
How could you guess
When you're only thinking of yourself?
And how you looked to other girls

Happiness (happiness)
And loneliness (loneliness)
How could you guess
When you're only thinking of yourself?
And how you looked to other girls
Happiness seems to be loneliness
And loneliness chilled my world




How could you guess, when you're only thinking of yourself?
And how you looked to other girls

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Marcus Layton's "Happiness" seem to be speaking to the idea that loneliness often feels like happiness, which may be a commentary on our society and the way we prioritize individualism over connection. The theme is reinforced in the repetition of the line "Happiness seems to be loneliness, and loneliness chilled my world." The lyrics also touch on the idea of selfishness and how it can interfere with interpersonal relationships. The lines "how could you guess, when you're only thinking of yourself?" and "nasty is what I see, disrespect, see me in your dreams" can be seen as a call-out to someone who has hurt the singer through their self-centered behavior. The song ends on a note of ambiguity, leaving the listener to interpret what the future holds for both parties involved.


Overall, the lyrics to "Happiness" are introspective and thought-provoking, encouraging us to consider the true nature of happiness and the role that loneliness and selfishness can play in our lives.
