Show me what I need
Force me to believe
What I need from you would make you wince
A reason to keep breathing ever since
You watch from afar
Waiting ‘til after dark
Wishin’, hopin,’ prayin’ just won’t do
I need you to show me that it’s true
Follow to be free
Nothing surprises me
When your words rub up against each other
I no longer think – I just get smothered
But I know you can
But I know you
Show me what I need
Show me what I need
Force me to believe
In a place where they let babies cry
You wear your fine clothes out
From the inside
From your squirmin’….
I see nothing of
Myself in you
Pouring water through a sieve again
You know better but you don’t know when
You curl your voice around
Me and it’s just sound
Being with you is like steam to ice
Staying here and I am lamed for life
A love ends with bitterness
tasting of cider pressed
From the apples of the lover’s hearts
Isn’t it just better not to start?
But I want to
I want you
Show me what I need
Force me to believe
