Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

seek sweet content
without him there's no pleasure
the mind content
knows blessings without measure
and sings itself along the roughest way
then lift your eyes
and be not dull and blind
pierce through the clouds
and see the sun behind





Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Miranda Sex Garden's song "Seek Sweet Content" portrays the idea that true contentment and happiness can only be achieved through self-discovery and self-sufficiency. The opening line, "seek sweet content," suggests that the quest for contentment should be a priority in life. The following lines, "without him there's no pleasure, the mind content knows blessings without measure," implies that relying on another person for happiness could lead to disappointment and unhappiness. Instead, being content with oneself and finding joy in one's own thoughts and feelings can lead to a more rewarding and satisfying life.


The third line, "and sings itself along the roughest way," represents the resilience of the human spirit. Despite facing obstacles and challenges in life, we can still find comfort and joy within ourselves.

I always thought that the last two lines were:
