Tell me everything, I was meant to be,
And watch it disappear as I stare at the ceiling again
Tell me everything I could do and watch me
Turn away and sigh
And tell me everything will be alright, we both know that these are lies
Tell me everything will be alright, tell me everything will be alright.
Tell me it won’t always be strangers listening,
Tell me the tissues and pity will end, that I won’t always need it,
Tell me I’m the same, tell me I’ll forget,
Make me think there’s something worth getting up for.
Tell me it’ s just one of those weeks,
Tell me I’m wrong, when I look at the box in the corner,
Tell me he can leave, but I can’t leave me,
Say you see a use for, what’s in front of you.
And when my words fall to stutters to silence
Say the same old tape won’t play forever,
And tell me I’m not too much I’ve just had not enough
And they’ll know better in time.
And tell me when I see a train
I won’t always feel the way I feel these days
Let me not believe you x 3
And tell me anyway.
Tell me everything please, if it keeps me going. X 2
Tell me everything, tell me anything,
Tell me everything.

A Body

You wanted a body and I served her up
So take your feed, take your feed
You wanted a body and I served her up,
So take your feed.
She’s not been mine for a while anyway
It would be a shame to waste her,
When she could have your use.
I find it easy in the gutter with you,
So thank you for letting me rest here ,
I feel free from my own pretence
When I’m nothing more than what I’ve been.
Chorus
And I am wasting away here
But I don’t care
There’s a peace in these shadows,
There’s a home in these arms
So let them feast on me, let them feast on me,
Let them feast.
I’m saying yes but my eyes say no,
I’m not sure either of us sees,
Maybe something should tell you to let this go
But you were never good with small words were you?
Chorus
And if it wasn’t you
It would be another guy
And if it wasn’t him
It would be a drink
And if it wasn’t that
It would be something else
Because don’t you see,
This is all on me.
