E A C#m B
It's just another day in paradise, as you stumble to your bed
E A C#m B
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

[Verse 2]
E A C#m B
Like sheep without a shepherd, don't know how to be alone

So we wander around this desert, wind up following the wrong Gods home

The flock cries out for another, they keep answering that bell

One more starry eyed messiah, meets a violent farewell

E A C#m B
There are so many contradictions, in all these messages we send, keep asking

How do I get out of here, where do I fit in
C#m A C#m A
Though the world is torn and shaking, even if your heart is breaking

It's waiting for you to awaken, and someday you will,
N.C. E A E A E A E A
Learn to be still, learn to be still

Keep on running, oh, yeah
