Everlasting Shining Peace of Mind
Chasing Happiness: The Journey to Everlasting Peace
Lyrics
I'm leaving on the early train, the first one at the station
Expressing the act of departure on the first train from the station.
Find a place to sit me down and run things through my mind,
Desiring a quiet place to reflect and contemplate.
Another job, another town, an unknown destination,
Embarking on a new job and moving to an unfamiliar location.
Another dingy rooming house, somewhere down the line.
Expecting to reside in another unappealing rooming house in the future.
All I ever wanted was a reason to be happy,
Expressing a simple desire for happiness.
Happiness can be so hard to find.
Acknowledging the difficulty in finding happiness.
All I ever needed was for you to get to know me,
Expressing a need for understanding and connection from others.
Everlasting shining peace of mind.
Aspiring for a lasting and tranquil peace of mind.
I'm tired of fighting for the things you often take for granted,
Feeling exhausted from constantly struggling for things taken for granted.
I'm tired of all the cheap talk in the bar rooms and saloons,
Frustration with insincere or trivial conversations in social places.
I'm heading out for pastures new where the eagle rules the canyon,
Seeking a new beginning in a place where freedom and strength prevail.
Down below the mesa, grow some scars upon my wounds.
Expecting challenges and experiences that leave lasting marks.
All I ever wanted was a reason to be happy,
Reiterating the desire for a reason to be happy.
Happiness can be so hard to find.
Emphasizing the difficulty in finding happiness.
All I ever need was for you to get to know me,
Reiterating the need for understanding and connection.
Everlasting shining peace of mind.
Reiterating the aspiration for lasting and tranquil peace of mind.
I'm leaving here to find somewhere that holds no false illusion,
Leaving in search of a place without deceptive illusions.
Illusions are like promises, the same old hollow ring,
Comparing illusions to empty promises with no substance.
I'm leaving here for anywhere that offers me seclusion,
Leaving for a place that provides seclusion and escape.
Live below the mountains, watch the eagle on the wing.
Desiring a life below the mountains and observing the freedom of an eagle.
All I ever wanted was a reason to be happy,
Expressing the ongoing desire for happiness.
Happiness can be so hard to find.
Reiterating the challenges in finding happiness.
All I ever needed was for you to get to know me,
Reiterating the need for understanding and connection.
Everlasting shining peace of mind.
Reiterating the aspiration for lasting and tranquil peace of mind.
