Just another day in paradise
As you stumble to your bed
Give anything to silence
Those voices ringing in your head

You thought you could find happiness
Just over that green hill
You thought you would be satisfied
But you never will
Learn to be still

We are like sheep without a shepherd
We don’t know how to be alone
So we wander ’round this desert
Wind up following the wrong gods home

But the flock cries out for another
And they keep answering that bell
One more starry-eyed Messiah
Meets a violent farewell
Learn to be still

Learn to be still
Now the flowers in your garden
They don’t smell so sweet, so sweet
Maybe you’ve forgotten
Heaven lying at your feet
Ay, yeah yeah

There are so many contradictions
In all these messages we send
Keep asking
How do I get outta here?
Where do I fit in?

Though the world is torn and shaken
Even if your heart is breakin’
It’s waiting for you to awaken
Someday you will
Learn to be still

Learn to be still
Just keep on runnin’
Keep on runnin’
Oh, oh yeah, mm, mm
Just keep on runnin’
