"Peace of Mind" lyrics:
A galaxy of goals and dreams
But only time for two or three
I'm scraping sky a mile high
And feeling like I'm burning life
They say there's no rest
For the weary
But I can feel it in my chest
And it's moving through me
Clouded, crowded, and shrouded
I'm constantly rerouted
Inadvertently diverted
And way overburdened
They say you need to find
The balance within
But I'm a two-dimension man
Spread paper thin
My mind is in pieces
Divided in so many ways
I'm aligning
Scattered reasons
There's no chance I'll stay
Moving at the speed of light
Forgetting to enjoy the flight
Am I leaving parts of me behind
That I hope my friends will help me find?
They say you need to stop
Smell the roses
But it's hard to plant a garden
where the ground is frozen
Sift through all the clutter
just to try and find another way
to live the destiny I see
and use my gifts more honestly
They say if it's worth having
Then it's worth the wait
This is an exercise of patience
That's stretching my faith
My mind is in pieces
Divided in so many ways
I'm aligning
Scattered reasons
There's no chance I'll stay
We're searching for some peace of mind
Hoping that we're gonna find
Half the time to double down
And split the cost of running 'round
I see no resignation from this heavy obligation
Unless we run that 80/20
Feel that final destination
We're searching for some peace of mind
Hoping that we're gonna find
Half the time to double down
And split the cost of running 'round
I see no resignation from this heavy obligation
Unless we run that 80/20
Feel that final destination
My mind is in pieces
Divided in so many ways
I'm aligning
Scattered reasons
There's no chance I'll stay
