"Never Satisfied" lyrics

"Never Satisfied"

How will morning find you?
How will the light define you?
When all the time you spent was wasted

Gather arms about you
What will it all amount to?
When all the time you spent was wasted
It was wasted along the way

Settle down and watch the sunrise
Rattle round and watch the day die
No more words for once
And laid to bed, we're all just getting by
But you're never satisfied

What your father told you
How he shipped and sold you
You got so far away you could taste it

But we are not our forebears
And maybe our home is nowhere
And we don't mind the time that's wasted
If it's wasted along the way

Settle down and watch the sunrise
Rattle round and watch the day die
No more words for once
And laid to bed, we're all just getting by
But you're never satisfied

You're never satisfied
Never satisfied
So you stay never satisfied
