"Everything You Want" lyrics

"Everything You Want"

Somewhere there's speaking
It's already coming in
Oh, and it's rising at the back of your mind
You never could get it
Unless you were fed it
But now you're here and you don't know why

Under skinned knees and the skid marks
Past the places where you used to learn
You howl and then listen
Listen and wait for the -
Echoes of angels who won't return

He's everything you want
He's everything you need
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
I mean nothing to you
And you don't know why

You're waiting for someone
To put you together
You're waiting for someone, to push you away
There's always another wound to discover
There's always something more you wish he'd say

He's everything you want
He's everything you need
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
She means nothing to you
And you don't know why

You'll just sit tight
And watch it unwind
It's only what you're waiting for
And you'll be just fine
When opening your eyes
It's only what you're asking for

Out of the island
Into the highway
Past the places where you used to turn
You never did notice
Unless you hide away
From the anger of Angels and who won't return

He's everything you want
He's everything you need
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
Says all the right things
At exactly the right time
He means nothing to you
And you don't know why

I am everything you want
I am everything you need
I am everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
I say all the right things
At exactly the right time
No, I mean nothing to you and I don't know why

And I don't know why
Why-y-y?, Why?
I don't know
