The Only Thing I Ever Wanted
Album - 22 maggio 2006 - Debaser id 318728

Hello
get out the abacus and count this
a funny story with a dark twist
the target's so big that you can't miss me

you're cumpulsive
and every page I turn I want more
I never know the next thing in store
cus you excite me like a locked door does

like a limpet
I wanna take your voice and drink it
there doesn't seem to be a limit
to all the things that I could do

I know how I want it to go
I know how I want it to be
don't make me think before i speak
or make me hold my horses

Hold tight
we saddled up if you can ride right
if you just think it then you'll be fine
fingers crossed that its the right time this time

your a fat swamp
we can visit for a fun romp
I really want to do the high jump
taking a risk with do us all some good

I know how I want it to go
i know how I want it to be
dont make me think before i speak
or make me hold my horses

I've got my eye on the prize (look at their eyes)
my beady eyes are alive (are alive)
although i dont know what comes next
I will not hold my horses

Hello
get out the abacus and count me
a funny feeling say I won't leave
the target's so big that you can't miss me

I know how i want it to go (I want it to go)
I know how i want it to be (I want it too)
don't make me think before I speak
or make me hold my horses

Ive got my eye on the prize (look at their eyes)
my beady eyes are alive (are alive)
and though i dont know what comes next
i will not hold my horses

I know what you thinking
I know how you see me
although it hurts
you're probably right

Where's the bone, where's the sack?
Where's these things of mine?
Pack them up, put them out,
Coz there's not much time.

Oh, I didn't know
That you had feelings, too.
Oh, I never thought
That I was king of you.

Where's the shame in my case,
As I've fallen down?
To the drug, to the floor
In an eager pout.

Oh, I didn't know
How alone you'd be.
And I never knew
How much I'd have to need.

You're on your last legs
Don't need me
There is no backup
No cut key
There is no monster
If I lose you
There is no needle & thread
That will mend you (mend you, mend you, mend you)

Don't you break
I will not let you
I'll make sure
They will not get you
Don't you break
I will not let you (I will not let you)
I'll make sure
They will not get you

There is no good pen
To write you down
There is no spare part
No common ground
I can't divide you
Cannot make you stay
There is no simple sum
No other way

Don't you break
I will not let you
I'll make sure
They will not get you
Don't you break
I will not let you (I will not let you)
I'll make sure
They will not get you
Don't you break
I will not let you (I will not let you)
I'll make sure
They will not get you
Don't you break
I will not let you (I will not let you)
I'll make sure
They will not get you

Come now, come and mourn me
It's so easy
Now I'm gone
My old bones are growing new bones
All the moments
That you send

I say that I don't need you
Don't come and tell you
What I should
And I'll break all our babies
Before they happen
Before they would

Do not fret 'cos I won't come back
I know my place
And it's not here
Come now, come and mourn me
It's so easy
Now I'm gone

Will I do?

You know and I know
How we work and how we hope
We get all tied up

You made some magic
You didn’t even try
Fell out of your eye
And I did to

You canda tennon one hand today
My fingers get in the way
I get all tied up

You know and I know
How we work and how we hope
We get all tied up

I drag my feet and drag your style
Don’t want me around
Tie you up

We've left our homes,
for the dusty road,
though it weighed us down,
to go.

Now, see, burning in the sun,
fire in our bellies.

Today ate us up,
and never chewed.
Though we still rolled along, cause 'a you.

The change that we don't see,
is happening to me
though you are watching.

It is cold, it is dark,
in the big black heart,
of the wood, of the hill,
at our home.

We are all, all but left,
in a wit un-breath.
We are all of the pack,
in the fire.


It is green, it is damp,
by the burning lamp,
of the woods, of the hills,
of our homes.

Oh, how I long, for the things I have,
for the burden I don't own.

Do I know, how to please your head
pour the contents back, that are spilling from my back.

the day is long, and the spark won't call
No saw, in the chest.

It is cold, it is dark,
in the big black heart,
of the wood, of the hill,
at our home.

We are all, all but left,
in a wit un-breath.
We are all of the pack,
in the fire.

Oh you, the husband of the wife,
I know you are watching.
Oh you, the husband of the wife,
I know you are watching.

Oh
Do you remember
All the seconds
You are awake
Yes
We take a lantern
And we go back
To your place
Oh
I won't abandon
My foolish notion
It's too much fun
Though
You say it's all right
You do not ask me what I've done

Are we
To make an effort
How might I weave it [???]
And count each one
I know
'Cos I can do it
And when I've done it
I will have won
Why
Can't I abandon
I need a random [???]
The wrong idea
I need
To make an edit
I need to change how I appear

I don't doubt
I know you know me
It's about
The words that throw me

Stammer a line
Burn out of change
There's ink on your hands
And a tear on your page
Half-found intentions are met with a frown
The simplest plans can drag you down

I don't doubt
I know you know me
It's about
The words that throw me
I don't doubt
I know you know me
It's about
The words that throw me

Tell me
Why does it matter
If there's no pattern
To what we do
I know
That only logic
When there's magic
Between me and you
All
Of a sudden
Now you are hidden
From my view
How
Do I get you back
And make an old love
New

I don't doubt
I know you know me
It's about
The words that throw me
I don't doubt
I know you know me
It's about
The words that throw me

There's a man in the street
Who tells me that he loves me
God is everywhere
He says he lives above me
I know more about this man
Than i know about you
Further than we go
In what we go through

We are small
We are small people [x4]

There's a day in a month
When I know why we're here
And no one drags us down
When you flip my gear
My mother doesn't love you
Even though she tries
I told her so many things
I forget the lies

We are small
We are small people [x4]

You will take the whole of me [x8]

The whole of me

Teach me the way
To be humble and good
To be quiet when I should
To be great

I am not what I was
Or what I will be
There is no one guessing for me

There’s a draft like a well
And a warm wet smell
And there is no one to break the fall

It’s so patient and meek
And you mouth never speaks
Of the times when our hopes die

There’s a draft like a well
And a warm wet smell
And there’s no one to break the fall

Teach me the way
To be humble and good
To be quiet when I should
To be great
