Satisfied
Ed & June Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been trying to justify my waiting for something
Though I find this is my time I'm doing nothing
I dont't know why I don't feel alive yeah
Different day the same odyssey I'm running in circles
Drinking smoking weeping choking searching for what thrills
I don't know why I don't feel alive at all
Feels like I'm dying in between heaven and hell
Working day and night to make me feel alright and still
I'm not satisfied
Feel the pain that drives me insane
But at least I'm feeling something so I keep on running
Think I lose myself but I lose my faith
Could this be my destiny
I don't know why I'm so paralyzed yeah
There's a fire burning inside of me
For some reason I'm believing
Agony is forcing me to see another opportunity
I don't know why I'm so paralyzed at all
Feels like I'm dying in between heaven and hell
Working day and night to make me feel alright and still
I'm not satisfied
I'm not satisfied
I'm not satisfied
I'm not satisfied
I'm not satisfied
I'm not satisfied yeah




Feels like I'm dying in between heaven and hell
Working day and night to make me feel alright and still
