Flobots - Never Had It lyrics
[Flobots - Never Had It lyrics]
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 left the room with something 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
Waiting 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 hiding the hope and then
The pain is not yours
No one's holding 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 wonder who, you think the day
Will never end and when it does
You wait until 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 describing 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' something more
(Keep wantin' more, you never had it)
(Keep wantin' more, you never had it)
Keep hiding the hope and then
The pain is not yours
No one's holding 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')
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 left the room with something 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
Waiting 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 hiding the hope and then
The pain is not yours
No one's holding 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 wonder who, you think the day
Will never end and when it does
You wait until 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 describing 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' something more
(Keep wantin' more, you never had it)
(Keep wantin' more, you never had it)
Keep hiding the hope and then
The pain is not yours
No one's holding 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')
