Learn to be still

Nov 22, 2005 21:43

It's just another day in paradise
As you stumble to your bed
You'd give anything to silence
Those voices ringing in your head
You thought you could find happiness
Just over that green hill
You thought you would be satisfied
But you never will-
Learn to be still

We are like sheep without a shepherd
We don't know how to be alone
So we wander 'round this desert
And wind up following the wrong gods home
But the flock cries out for another
And they keep answering that bell
And one more starry-eyed messiah
Meets a violent farewell-
Learn to be still
Learn to be still

Now the flowers in your garden
They don't smell so sweet
Maybe you've forgotten
The heaven lying at your feet

There are so many contridictions
In all these messages we send
(we keep asking)
How do I get out of here
Where do I fit in?
Though the world is torn and shaken
Even if your heart is breakin'
It's waiting for you to awaken
And someday you will-
Learn to be still
Learn to be still

You just keep on runnin'
Keep on runnin'

Alas it is not one of my creations (I wish) but kinda feeling this at the moment. Ever have so many thoughts, so many worries and so many things going on that it seems never ending even though you know that its not actually all that bad and you don't feel bad and you know that its not as bad as it gets and yet all you want to do is sleep? Did that make any sense? oh well it did in my head. I am so damn tired and all I want to do is sleep but when I sleep I wake up even more tired as a result of my subconscious which I am pissed off with *stabs it* I miss sleep. yay for weird dreams, insomnia, and stress :D
