1
Woman, tell me what you want
2
And I'll calm down without bleeding out
3
With my broken heart that you stabbed for an hour
4
Woman, too, I was freaking out because I want you to know
5
My beloved, you are the lover of my impossible soul
6
And woman, too, promise you'll stay and put off all your woes
7
I was bleeding out, too much worry, I could not get you at all
8
And if you said what you want, I would laugh it off
9
But I know you won't go, not for either class
10
Must you write it off for the impossible soul?
11
And I was in a dream, I was gone away without you but not too slow
12
For I put it off, lest I put it right for the impossible soul
13
And all I couldn't sing, I would say it all
14
My love to you, if I could get you at all
15
Don't be a wreck, trying to be something that I wasn't at all
16
Seems I got it wrong, I was chasing after something that was gone
17
To the black of night, now I know it's not what I wanted at all
18
I'll say something like, all you want is all the world for yourself
19
And all I want is the perfect love, though I know it's small
20
I won't hurt for its soul
21
And all I couldn't sing, I would say it all
22
My love to you, if I could get you at all
23
Oh, oh oh oh, trying to be something that I wasn't at all
24
Do you want to be afraid? Do you want to be afraid?
25
For life in the cage where courage's mate runs deep in the waves
26
For the scariest things are not half as enslaved
27
Don't be distracted, don't be distracted
28
Do you want to be alone? Do you want to be alone?
29
For life isn't stained of righteousness pale
30
The seed and the hail, all the clouds that have left aren't interested
31
Don't be distracted, don't be distracted
32
Do you want to love me more? Do you want to love me more?
33
For love is the breath
34
If water and wind is cursed
35
By the same thing that nurtured its shame
36
Is it worth all the work?
37
Don't be distracted, don't be distracted
38
Have you failed to feel delight?
39
And have you failed to feel delight?
40
Instead of the love, lived tired and lost, have you left it at last
41
Where it floundered its death with the language of ghosts?
42
Don't be distracted, don't be distracted
43
Do you want to be afraid? Do you want to be afraid?
44
For life in the cage where
45
Where courage's mate runs deep in the waves
46
For the scariest things are not half as enslaved
47
Don't be distracted, don't be distracted
