Everything You Want

you're a god


I've got to be honest
I think you know
We're covered in lies and that's ok
There's somewhere beyond this i know
But i hope i can find the words to say

Never again no
No never again

Chorus
'cause you're a god
And i am not
And i just thought
That you would know
You're a god
And i am not
And i just thought
I'd let you go

But i've been unable
To put you down
I'm still learning things i ought to know by now
It's under the table so
I need something more to show somehow

Never again no
No never again

Chorus

I've got to be honest
I think you know
We're covered in lies and that's ok
There's somewhere beyond this i know
But i hope i can find the words to say
Never again no
No never again

Chorus

For so long my life's been sewn up tight inside your hold
And it leaves me there without a place to call my own

I know now what shadows can see
There's no point in running 'less you run with me
It's half the distance through the open door
Before you cut me down
Again
Let me introduce you to the end

And i feel the cold wind blowing beneath my wings
It always leads me back to suffering
But i will soar until the wind whips me down
Leaves me beaten on unholy ground again

So tired now of paying my dues
I start out strong but then i always lose
It's half the distance before you leave me behind
It's such a waste of time

Chorus
'cause my shackles
You won't be
And my rapture
You won't believe
And deep inside you will bleed for me

So here i slave inside of a broken dream
Forever holding on to splitting seams
So take your piece and leave me alone to die
I don't need you to keep my faith alive

I know now what trouble can be
And why it follows me so easily
It's half the distance through the open door
Before you shut me down
Again
Let me introduce you to the end

Chorus

Though you know you care

Chorus

And my laughter
You won't hear
The faster
I disappear
And time will burn your eyes to tears

So you say
I'm too quiet
Holding things
Up in my head

I say so much
But you don't buy it
I don't want to wake up
Alone in my head

Oh say that you'll never go now
Don't go
Don't go

Chorus i need a lot of you
I want a lot of you
I need a lot of you
All of you

I tend to think
I'm getting nowhere
I drag it out
Whenever i can

Someday
I'll get back there
And find the world
You dropped from your hand

Oh but some things you'll never show now
I know
I know

Chorus

Watch you coming up
Out on top now
Watch you coming up

Chorus

Here in the light
It burns you up inside
Here in the shell of a sun
We echo on

Too much listening
Not enough living

Chorus
And you say
What did i say
What did you say
We just
Go away
Go away
Go away

It helps you out
Knowing i'm left out
Locked in a box with a light
That won't shine

Turn it on and wait for
Someone to come

Chorus

I'm here now
Waiting
Holding on to reasons
Wasted
I faced it
Watching you deny me

Here in the light
It burns you out sometimes
Here in the shell of a sun
We echo on

Left alone forever
All alone together

Chorus

Somewhere there's speaking
It's already coming in
Oh and it's rising at the back of your mind
You never could get it
Unless you were fed it
Now you're here and you don't know why

But under skinned knees and the skid marks
Past the places where you used to learn
You howl and listen
Listen and wait for the
Echoes of angels who won't return


Chorus
He's everything you want
He's everything you need
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why

You're waiting for someone
To put you together
You're waiting for someone to push you away
There's always another wound to discover
There's always something more you wish he'd say

Chorus

But you'll just sit tight
And watch it unwind
It's only what you're asking for
And you'll be just fine
With all of your time
It's only what you're waiting for

Out of the island
Into the highway
Past the places where you might have turned
You never did notice
But you still hide away
The anger of angels who won't return

Chorus
I am everything you want
I am everything you need
I am everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
I say all the right things
At exactly the right time
But i mean nothing to you and i don't know why
And i don't know why
Why
I don't know

I don't think you notice
When you see my face
I guess you're waiting
To spin me around again

Wheels i guess are turning
Somewhere inside my head
I know that this is
Deeper than you get

But you're coming back again
You don't mean to waste my time
But you're coming back so

Chorus
Don't tell me
How to be
'cause i like some suffering
Don't ask me
What i need
I'm just fine
Here finding me
Me

I've already given
Up on getting through
I never question
Who i'm talking to

Oh so much for nothing
But nothing means so much
I know it's touching
But i've been out of touch

And it's all that i can do
I'm a sight for my sore eyes
But it's all i am so

Chorus

I don't think you notice
When i can't reach out
I guess you're waiting
On somebody else again

Oh so much for talking
It's all been said before
I'm hearing something
But i wish you'd just say more

But you're going off again
When i try to just hold on
But you're going off so

Chorus
