[Verse 1]

Got ragged through two parties

Couldn't find a sucker I could kiss

And friends won't share when I'm like this

The house I grew up in in lost the illegal build

Your heart still sends pain from where wings were


[Pre-Chorus]

World is full of edges, think I'm coming down

World is full of edges, lost and found

World is full of edges, think I'm coming down

World is full of edges, lost and found


[Chorus]

In the night, you drive

Taking in it all

When you talk to her

Lonely hearts will call


[Verse 2]

The TV's broke

Men waiting for their looks to come on

At court, at the shot-end of the bar

I'll be okay

A world that breaks can be saved

Just petals from blown roses


[Pre-Chorus]

World is full of edges, think I'm coming down

World is full of edges, lost and found

World is full of edges, think I'm coming down

World is full of edges, lost and found


[Chorus]

In the night, we drive

Taking in it all

When I move to you

Lonely hearts, self talk


[Verse 3]

Love, I have tried to tell you

Look under sky, not into it

Larry Walters reached that high

Felled stars on his way back

Now you've lost it all

There's just self talk

When all you want is love


[Bridge]

And they're sending prayers by email

This week's consolation prize

(When all you want is love)

Coming down, violence of vectors

Dull car wash party balloons

(When all you want is love)

We all want photos as heroes

Sometimes we're the steak knives

(When all you want is love)

Worn mix-tapes of all your failures

Play out in your head all night

(When all you want is love)

City inside won't forgive you

Nothing that you say seems right

(Love is what you want)

They are sending prayers by email

This week's consolation prize

(When all you want is love)
