Harvey Danger：Meaning of Happiness Writes White Songmeaning

The song Happiness Writes White by Harvey Danger is about a person named Ariella and their relationship with the singer. The lyrics imply that the singer is not a religious person and does not need a god to make them feel good. However, they struggle to express their love for Ariella through a song because happiness is difficult to put into words and express through music. The singer acknowledges that they are not very confident, but since Ariella came into their life, they feel better about themselves. The chorus repeats the line "happiness writes white" which means it is hard to write about happiness as it is difficult to express happiness in words. The singer is amazed that Ariella puts up with their shortcomings and is everything to them. The song ends with the singer asking if Ariella is sleeping. The overall message of the song is about the challenges of expressing and writing about happiness, especially in a relationship.
