Contentment
I once had it together
I had direction, I had a tether
Was driftin high, I was a feather
way up in the clouds, there was nothing better
In a day it can fall apart
Just like the day that he broke my heart
It's the day that your high heels start fillin with sand
and you say to hell with the five year plan
Do you miss the human faces?
Do you know just what you're saving?
Contentment, it don't last long
Before you want more or lose it all
Resentment, you turn your back on the world
And it lasts as long as you damn well want
The black sheep they don't get fed
They don't get sheared but they don't get bre(a)d
You work to live but you can sleep when you're dead
Where there is silence and peace and rest
See, we live on a random sphere
Where we make anger from sadness and hatred from fear
Where we push our problems down the road
Til they gain momentum and then they explode
Do you miss the human faces?
Do you know just what you're saving?
Do you miss the human faces?
Do you know just what you're saving for?
I had direction, I had a tether
Was driftin high, I was a feather
way up in the clouds, there was nothing better
In a day it can fall apart
Just like the day that he broke my heart
It's the day that your high heels start fillin with sand
and you say to hell with the five year plan
Do you miss the human faces?
Do you know just what you're saving?
Contentment, it don't last long
Before you want more or lose it all
Resentment, you turn your back on the world
And it lasts as long as you damn well want
The black sheep they don't get fed
They don't get sheared but they don't get bre(a)d
You work to live but you can sleep when you're dead
Where there is silence and peace and rest
See, we live on a random sphere
Where we make anger from sadness and hatred from fear
Where we push our problems down the road
Til they gain momentum and then they explode
Do you miss the human faces?
Do you know just what you're saving?
Do you miss the human faces?
Do you know just what you're saving for?
