We long for everything we can't have We wish for everything to be better We want more than we could ever have Nobody is ever satisfied Children are starving People are killing Kidnapping Stealing Everything could be worse Everything we know could cease to exist Everything we own could be taken away Yet we're still not satisfied Why is it that nobody appreciates Why is it that people aren't thankful Thankful for the little things Thankful for a family, or a house You have more than some will ever have You have more than some dream of You have what some people want You have what some people need Everybody wants more Everybody is greedy Everybody dreams for more Everybody is envious
