Discontment
One thing I believe in my heart's deepest core
All my life I have wished for something more
But we live and die with our minds so closed
We never realize that we've gotten what we were owed
As a young simple fool, with my eyes on the world
All I wanted was to fly, to be propelled, to be hurled
To get a chance, just a glimpse of the wonders to see
To embrace and to feel all the pleasures next to me
So many wants and desires and dreams in me
I could never have thought they would all agree
To come true in a span so short and sweet
Have me touch and caress them, just fall at my feet
Looking back its clear that all I should do
Is to bow my head in absolute gratitude
For if truth be told, I should head for the door
But sadly, I want more, and more and more
