I’m a man of love and pure devotion I’m the man for every little need I’m a man that’s sailing through the ocean I can feel the tides against my feet And I don’t know where I’ll go And I don’t know where I’ll go I’m a man of sand and earth beneath me I’m the man for every little seed I’m a man that’s spilled my blood for something I’m a man and no one sees me bleed And I don’t know where I’ll go And I don’t know where I’ll go

I’m ready to laugh, I’m ready to sing, I’m ready to do anything If it’s with you I’m ready to learn, I’m ready to cry I’m ready to have it hurt me when I say goodbye When I’m with you I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t wanna do Everything in my life with you So believe me when I say I’m not afraid of growing old If it’s with you I’m ready to listen, to fall from above, ready to kiss and I’m ready to fall in love If it’s with you

Heaven 03:27
Light up the world With everything you touch I wish I had more words to say That I love you so goddamn much I wish I had the voice I wish I had the nerve I would say say so many things if I only had the words You feel like heaven to me Like no one ever has I’ll write your name on the backs of my eyelids And on the backs of my hands I wanna show you I love you I think I say it enough I wanna be the one you love Even when it gets tough I wanna take myself seriously I think I need some sleep I wanna say all the things I’m feeling I’m yours to keep I think I’m falling for you I hope that’s not rushed You said “I love you” first And then you blushed I wanna say I love you I wanna say, I do You say “I’m getting distracted” Well honey, I am too I wanna show you I love you I wanna show you I care I wanna hold you closely And play with your hair You feel like heaven to me Like no one ever has I’ll write your name on the backs of my eyelids And on the backs of my hands

One chance encounter A subtle, tiny nod Things like this, they tell me I can’t be like a god So when you say you need me Never tell a lie When you say grieve me Never tell a lie Warm chance encounter The things that make me spit Tell me that you need me But I don’t give a shit Won’t embrace the future To have or have not But when I’m looking at you My smile begins to rot You say you really need me You say you love me so But every time I leave you I’m happy just to go You say you really want me You say you really care But when I’m looking at you I’m pulling out my hair I don’t mean to frighten It’s just the way I think A tense casual encounter That makes me want to drink I don’t think I hate you It’s just that it’s too soon I think that we should pardon Whoever’s in the room

Do you love who you see in the mirror? If only you’d pretend to care I can hear your empty silence clearer If only you’d pretend to care Grasp to it, I can feel there’s nothing there Reach for you but you’re thin air Grasp to it, I can feel there’s nothing there Reach for you but you’re thin air Do you love me? Grasp to it, I can feel there’s nothing there Reach for you but you’re thin air Grasp to it, I can feel there’s nothing there Reach for you but you’re thin air

Crush me just to fit me in the palm of your hands Crush me just to see me wanna be your man Tell me that you miss me when you see me run off Tell me that you miss me but you know I never will Somethings coming over me I think it’s my mind Somethings coming over me I think I ah Never would’ve thought of you as something to miss Never would’ve thought of you as something I could know Tell me that you miss me when you see me run off Tell me that you miss me when I When I pack my things and go You don’t own me You don’t own me and you never will You don’t know me You don’t know me and you never will Crush me just to fit me in the palm of your hands Crush me into something that fits in the shape of Cookie cutter shapes that look exactly like me Cookie cutter men of who you want me to be Tell me that you miss me when you see me run off Tell me that you miss me when I

Grieve 03:48
You came into my life And I’d hoped you would stay for a while Plans are prayers to Father Time You’re graceful and so sweet Swept through me like a cold breeze Standing still, frozen, I die Admit it you don’t need Me half as much as you said you would Though I admit that I was wrong I hope you believe me When I say I really need you But we move on and we survive I would build you a castle Or just a shelf to see you smile at me Painted lines across the pine So would you say I’m an asshole Or would you say I was the best I still think you’re the best Admit it you don’t need Me half as much as you said you would Though I admit that I was wrong I hope you believe me When I say I really need you But we move on and we survive Admit it you don’t need (I hope that he loves you) Me half as much as you said you would (half as much as I do) But we move on and we survive

Do the dishes, sweep the floor Declare another fucking war It doesn’t matter It doesn’t matter I wanna be in an institution Nobody think, just solutions Fix my problems, feel the dread Wind up with another dead Cross my Ts and dot my Is One speaks, another lies It doesn’t matter It doesn’t matter Abandon ship, all hope is loss I guess I’ll see what it doesn’t cost Another bone breaks under weight Live to die another day It doesn’t matter It doesn’t matter

Cut me With everything you say now With everything you thought you’d thrown away You thought you’d give up everything To live a life of peace To live a life of selfish greed You say I really meant a lot to you You say I haven’t got a lot to prove To you But every time I touch your hand You pull away You pull away And I think Of every time you told me that You dream Of every song he wrote for you And I’ll crash My car into the bridge It’s what I thought you’d want from me It’s what I thought you’d want from me You say I really meant a lot to you You say I haven’t got a lot to prove To you But every time I try to kiss you Pull away You pull away And I bet You thought you’d see how long it takes Till you Give in to all of your mistakes I said I would do anything for you I said I would to anything for you You meant Every single word you said To me The night you had me on my knees But when You told me not to leave You meant You don’t want to be lonely

I feel everything all the time Every last impression left behind Everything I thought I’d never find Everything I though I’d Nevermind I feel everything all the time I feel everything all the time Simply unrequited residence of the mind Simply unrequited spenditure of time

I wish I had the guts I wish I had the nerve I would’ve said so many things But I didn’t have the words I would’ve stuck it out I would’ve said enough I would’ve said so many things But it wouldn’t get you off I wish I had the strength I wish I had the words I wish I had so many things That didn’t sound absurd I wish you hadn’t have done it What can I say? I wish you hadn’t have made me stay But I stayed and I stayed and I stayed up late You’re so obsessed with it all You’re so obsessed with it all I wish I had the guts I wish I had the nerve In the margins I will think And I will observe I wish you hadn’t have done that It’s not my fault I know it’s sad to say I know it’s not my fault I wish you hadn’t have done that I know it’s sad to say It could’ve been much worse I wish I had the strength to speak But I wouldn’t have the words

Love of mine you’ve hurt me Let me sail away tonight My endless dream don’t cry now Let me make things right Oh Oh Oh Sing to me as I lay I will always love you Any time of day I will always love you No matter how far away I will always love you Sing to me as I lay I will always love you Lay down here beside me The night is crawling near Though you don’t feel the same way I’ll always be here

Swans 04:51
You clutch onto me I can tell you don’t want me to leave But we got shit to figure out on our own On our own I want to love myself in the same way that I love you I walk back in to bright eyes You hold me tight in your arms And I don’t want to leave you But we both know it’s for the best For the best I want to love myself In the same way that I love you

My dearest cherry pie You’re the sweetest thing around My gentle lullaby My favorite dream when I lay down I know I’m not Harry styles And I don’t wanna be Cause all I ever wanna be Is in your arms My softest warm blanket My favorite thing to wrap me up My lovely darling dear I can’t say “I love you” enough I know I’m not Harry styles And I don’t wanna be Cause all I ever wanna be Is in your arms
