|
I see you sit and swallow pain |
|
For all of those who will not speak |
|
You raise your voice, you fill the stage |
|
Your eyes are wide |
|
You know the weakness that you've felt |
|
Is not just yours, so many more, you're not alone |
|
The songs you sing are not your own |
|
You lift the room with somethin' real |
|
You never had it |
|
(You never had it) |
|
Keep on wantin' somethin' more |
|
(Keep on wantin' somethin' more) |
|
You never had it |
|
(You never had it) |
|
Keep on wantin' somethin' more |
|
(Keep on wantin') |
|
You never had it |
|
So you hesitate to try and find it |
|
You listen carefully for whispers |
|
Of what lurks behind it |
|
You play the corners, never get too close |
|
To where it might be waitin' for you |
|
Never had it |
|
Keep on wantin' somethin' more |
|
Keep wantin' more |
|
You never had it |
|
Keep wantin' more |
|
You never had it |
|
Keep hidin' the hope |
|
And then the pain is not yours |
|
No one's holdin' the rope |
|
You gotta pull it on your own |
|
All the songs have been sung |
|
And all the doors have been closed |
|
Keep on wantin' more |
|
Keep on wantin' |
|
Keep on wantin' |
|
You keep on wantin' |
|
Keep on wantin' |
|
You keep on wantin' |
|
And I watch you wander through these halls |
|
You slouch, you shrug, you shrink away |
|
And I call you, stop, you blink, you pause |
|
You wander, who? |
|
You think the day will never end |
|
And when it does you wait up till the building's dark |
|
The doors are locked, you're on the bus |
|
You looked inside but did not touch |
|
You never had it |
|
(You never had it) |
|
Keep on wantin' somethin' more |
|
(Keep on wantin' somethin' more) |
|
You never had it |
|
(You never had it) |
|
Keep on wantin' somethin' more |
|
(Keep on wantin') |
|
You never had it |
|
But you know how to provide it |
|
So you stand up and call for it |
|
Nervous, describin' what you go through |
|
You don't wanna get caught up in all the |
|
Things they say to try to provoke you |
|
Don't need anyone to tell you |
|
Keep on wantin' somethin' more |
|
Keep wantin' more |
|
You never had it |
|
Keep wantin' more |
|
You never had it |
|
Keep hidin' the hope |
|
And then the pain is not yours |
|
No one's holdin' the rope |
|
You gotta pull it on your own |
|
All the songs have been sung |
|
And all the doors have be closed |
|
Keep on wantin' more |
|
Keep on wantin' |
