Are You Satisfied?
Marina and The Diamonds/Marina And The Diamonds - http:/www.2.dlera.com Lyrics

I was pulling out my hair
I was feeling so overwhelmed and stressed that I was literally pulling out my hair

The day I cut the deal
On the day that I made an important agreement or arrangement

Chemically calm
Feeling numb or sedated due to the use of drugs or medication

Was I meant to feel happy?
I was confused about whether or not I should have been feeling happy in this situation

But my life was just about to change
Little did I know, my life was about to undergo a major transformation

One life pretending to be
Living a life where I have to pretend to be someone I'm not

The cat who got the cream
Falsely appearing to be the person who has everything and is completely satisfied

Oh, everybody said
Everyone around me constantly expressed their opinions

Marina is a dreamer
People describe me as unrealistic or impractical

People like to tell you what you're gonna be
People enjoy predicting what my future will look like

It's not my problem if you don't see what I see
I don't feel responsible for how others perceive or understand me

And I do not give a damn if you don't believe
I don't care if you don't believe in me or what I am capable of

My problem is my problem
I acknowledge that my problems are my own and I take ownership of them

That I never am happy
I struggle with never feeling truly content or fulfilled

It's my problem, it's my problem
My issues are no one else's responsibility but my own

That I never will succeed
I have a deep fear of never achieving my goals or reaching my full potential

Are you satisfied with an average life?
Do you feel content with a life that is ordinary or unremarkable?

Do I need to lie to make my way in life?
Must I compromise who I am in order to succeed in life?

High achiever don't you see
As someone who tends to be an overachiever, don't you realize

Baby, nothing comes for free
Success or achievement comes at a steep price or requires great sacrifice

They say I am a control freak
People label me as someone who is obsessed with controlling everything around them

Driven a greed to succeed
Motivated by an intense desire to succeed or achieve more

Nobody can stop me
No one can stand in the way of my drive or ambition

It's my business if I feel the need to smoke and drink and swear
It's no one else's concern if I choose to engage in certain vices or bad habits

It's my problem, it's my problem
I am solely responsible for my own issues or struggles

If I feel the need to hide
Sometimes I feel like I need to conceal my true self from others or keep secrets

And it's my problem if I have no friends and feel I want to die
If I am lonely or struggling with suicidal thoughts, that is something I have to cope with on my own

Once you cross the line
There is a certain point or boundary that, once crossed, there is no going back

Sad inside, in this life, unsatisfied, praying
Feeling deeply unhappy or disappointed with life, and praying for things to get better

Sad inside, in this life, unsatisfied, waiting
Feeling depressed, unfulfilled, and waiting for something to change or improve in my life

Do I need to fly to make my way in life
Is it necessary for me to make drastic or extreme changes in my life in order to achieve success?

Are you satisfied with an easy ride
Are you okay with life being easy and comfortable, without any challenges or struggles?

Are you satisfied?
Are you truly happy and content with your life?
