Too Sweet

Lately this life tastes 
a little too sweet
I wake up still full 
from sugar-coated dreams
History tells me 
it can't be healthy
Too much happiness 
can't be good for me

I'm used to taking goodness 
with a grain of salt
And a pinch tossed over my shoulder, 
to ward evil off
Daily battles in a war
that's never done
But maybe I'm allowed
to win this one
