And have you ever wanted something so badly

that it possessed your body and your soul

through the night and through the day

until you finally get it!

And then you realize that it wasn't what you wanted

after all.

And then those selfsame sickly little thoughts

now go and attach themselves to something....

....or somebody....new!

And the whole goddamn thing starts all over again.

Well, I've been crushing the symptoms

but I can't locate the cause.

Could God really be so cruel?

To give us feelings

that could never be fulfilled.

Baby!

I've got my sights set on you.

I've got my sight set on you

And someday, someday, someday,

you'll come my way.

But when you put your arms around me

I'll be looking over your shoulder

for something new

'cause I ain't ever found peace

upon the breast of a girl

I ain't ever found peace with the religion

of the world

I ain't ever found peace

at the bottom of a glass

sometimes it seems

the more I ask for

the less I receive

sometimes it seems

the more I ask for

the less I receive

The only true freedom

is freedom from the heart's desires

and the only true happiness....this way lies.
