Lyrics
This isn’t a sad song
So don’t get your hopes up
If you were hoping that I
would make you cry again
This is a happy song about being comfortable
With the feeling of infinite discontent
Let’s put it all on the table
Acknowledge the elephant
We were born into it, we never had a choice
What kind of monster would create
A being for the purpose of
Wandering to fill a void
I’ve tried it with poison
I’ve tried it with God
But it’s always at least half empty
Even when I’m happy, I’m not
Without disappointment
But I think that’s okay
Maybe it’s human nature to feel this way
When everything’s right there’s nothing wrong
We just long...
For something, for anything
We’re always looking
So I sit and stare at nature
Through the picture window glass
And watch patterns of light move across the floor
For a moment I am full
But know soon I’ll be back
Telling myself there has to be more
You can call it ungratefulness
Or the absence of God
But I’m betting he’s just as empty
If he built us to be this lost
All we have is this moment
So we shouldn’t waste time
Just find love and be grateful to be alive
Because everything’s right, there’s nothing wrong
We just long...
For something, for anything
We’re always looking
