[Verse 1]

Tears just like the jewels adorn their corporate crown

Weigh on me worthless

And I shake them down and leave now

Have no royal things


[Verse 2]

You would consecrate the ground I paced in pain

And though those pavements caught your sorrow stains

They fall from me and I say

Maybe don't fall for anything

That says it's never gonna give you everything


[Chorus]

I wish myself into your arms

To know that all I need is everything


[Post-Chorus]

The size of the sea and the sun in my eyes

And the line in my head

Yearning for more

Only for more

These days are as bright as the days I have seen

In the wildest of dreams

Yearning for more

Only for more


[Chorus]

I wish myself into your arms

To know that all I need is everything


[Verse 1]

Tears just like the jewels adorn their corporate crown

Weigh on me worthless

And I shake them down and leave now

Have no royal things


[Verse 2]

You would consecrate the ground I paced in pain

And though those pavements caught your sorrow stains

They fall from me and I say

Maybe don't fall for anything

That says it's never gonna give you everything


[Chorus]

I wish myself into your arms

To know that all I need is everything


[Post-Chorus]

Hold back the night, I am tired of my sight

That won't see anymore

More than today

Threatening to stay

Hold back the night, I am tired of my sight

That won't see anymore

Show me you care

Show me the door


[Instrumental]
