Greener Grass

Millencolin

I'm not harmonic

I can't reach self-esteem

That's quite ironic

coz I thought I'd be happy living my dream

I don't feel supersonic

I don't drive in the lane of whipped cream

I'm more like a chronic

ignorantly swimming upstream



What can I do to be happy?

I have problems to decide

When it looks to me the grass is greener

On the other side



How do I live for the moment

when I always wanna be else where?

How do I reach a fulfilment

when I'm crashed and got parts to repair?

Why is my only amusement

giving other people despair?

Why do I give jealous judgement

on another's affair?



I wanna get satisfaction just like

the Stones and Manu Chao

Gotta ignore all rejection

I gotta keep trying anyhow

I wanna be close to the action

I wanna live my life now

For this correction I need direction

gotta find it within myself somehow



So maybe one day I'll be happy?!

But until then I have to realise

That the grass is not always greener

It's only up to be to recognize

That the grass is not always greener

It's in your head it might look greener

Coz the grass will never be greener

On the other side
