Everybody wants what they want
|
It's the way we've learned to live
|
Everybody wants ehat they want
|
But no one wants to give
|
Everybody wants some happiness
|
At someone else's expense
|
We choke on our fill
|
We live in excess
|
But we buy, lie, and kill
|
In the pursuit of happiness
|
Everybody wants some peace of mind
|
So they ignore the guilt
|
But you can't erase this land's disgrace
|
Or the blood we have spilt
|
Everybody wants the greener grass
|
That's on their neighbor's lawn
|
It's why wars are waged
|
And freedom's caged
|
And coffins are filled with pawns
|
Everybody wants to fight the fight
|
But no one wants to bruise
|
Everybody wants to die a martyr
|
But pray on padded pews
|
Everybody needs to hear the truth
|
About our emptiness
|
That Jesus Christ
|
Is the end of the search
|
In the pursuit of happiness
|
