[Verse]
I'm not invincible
I'm not afraid
Decisions decided
Mistakes have been made
And what if tomorrow there's nobody there

And let me be honest
And let me be pure
And if I can't be those things
Let me be stubborn and doubt
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't let me mean nothing or just pass away
Just give me tomorrow forever today
God knows I'll waste it
The great equalizer is hurriedly rushing my way
[Chorus]
Be content
Be content
[Verse]
Why am I unnerved?
Oh, why am I surprised?

He must go
So when that day comes
Whether planned or unplanned
When I join the infinite grains of the sands
When I see the whites gates of heaven
Or fires below
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't let me mean nothing or just pass away
Just give me tomorrow forever today
God knows I'll waste it
The great equalizer is hurriedly rushing my way
[Chorus]
Be content
Be content
