Marina & the Diamonds - Are You Satisfied? [WITH LYRICS]

I was pulling out my hair
The day I cut the deal
Chemically calm
Was I meant to feel happy?
But my life was just about to change

One life pretending to be
The cow that got the cream
Oh, everybody said
Marina is a dreamer
People like to tell you what you're gonna be
It's not my problem if you don't see what I see
And I do not give a damn if you don't believe
My problem is my problem
That I never am happy
Is my problem, is my problem
That I never will succeed

Are you satisfied with an average life
Do I need to lie to make my way in life

High achiever don't you see
Baby, nothing comes for free
They say I am a control freak
Driven a greed to succeed
Nobody can stop me

Cause it's my problem
If I wanna pack up and run away
It's my business if I feel the need to
Smoke and drink and swear
It's my problem, it's my problem
If I feel the need to hide
It's my problem if I have no friends
And feel I want to die

Are you satisfied with an average life
Do I need to lie to make my way in life

Are you satisfied with an easy ride
Once you cross the line
Will you be satisfied?

Sad inside
In this life
I'm satisfied praying
Sad inside
In this life
I'm satisfied waiting

Are you satisfied with an average life
Do I need to lie to make my way in life

Are you satisfied with an easy ride
Once you cross the line
Will you be satisfied?

Are you satisfied? (x8)

Marina needs to come over to the states and kick the asses of those Disney girls that thing they're all that and a bag of chips. She's got real talent.

[EmaciatedPuppet]

anyone else thing she could totally rock a Regina Spektor song?

[TheParanoidAndroid1]

I really like all her stuff, but this is probably the only track I'd rate as being really good. It's smashing.

[KalElAlexx]

@BelMagick Marina explained in an interview that the song is about how she wasn't satisfied with her life at the time and just wanted to be successfull.

And then she mentioned how people kept telling her that she would never make it and how she just wouldn't settle for an average life.

She then said that she doesn't feel that way anymore because now she got what she wanted and hopes to keep it.

I don't really think the song is about the record industry, just more about achieving your dreams.

[BanginBASICS]

every single working of this fucking album is the story of my fucking lifeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[lohrpeter99]

Well, It was. But It will change I promise !

@Supawaffle

Well I guess some people don't notice it but all of her music is actually depressing :)

[Supawaffle]

These lyrics are pretty depressing to me. I really love this song.
