I never knew
how good these lyrics were...
just wanted to share it wth you:
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’

I was just thinking about old age, and having company.
Does it really get that lonely if you are alone all the time? I tend to be introverted and antisocial at times. Am I just taking for granted the company of others? or is it ok to feel like I need time for myself. and if it is, then does that mean I am okay with being by myself, then in turn does that mean I may not be too lonely when I grow old because I am happy being alone most of the time?
