As Stone describes on the commentary version of this album, this is a song about his generation’s attachment to material goods and social media. He is lamenting young people’s seeming addiction to these superficial forms of validation and connection.
Contact High Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Are you looking for peace of mind?
You won't find it in your status line
What are you trying to prove?
Whose mountain are you trying to move?
I fell for it, too (fell for it, too)
[Chorus]
Whatever keeps you occupied (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Whatever gives you contact high (Contact high)
Whatever keeps you busy, baby
Will never make you satisfied
[Verse 2]
Are you looking for security
Validation or identity?
You won't find it in things
The more you got, oh, the less you see, yeah
I fell for it, too (fell for it, too)
[Chorus]
Whatever keeps you occupied (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Whatever gives you contact high (Contact high)
Whatever keeps you busy, baby
Will never make you satisfied
[Bridge]
I've been all over the world
I've dug for diamonds and I've dove for pearls
And the real treasure that we all seek
Is hiding in plain sight of me
[Chorus]
Whatever keeps you occupied (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Whatever gives you contact high (Contact high)
Whatever keeps you busy, baby
Will never make you satisfied
Whatever keeps you occupied (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Whatever gives you contact high (Contact high)
Whatever keeps you busy, baby
Will never make you satisfied
[Outro]
Will never make you satisfied
Will never make you satisfied
Will never make you satisfied
