starts to clang,
no ears can stand the din
It sounds like heaven's raining
rocks against the roof of tin
Your words are sharp and jagged,
they tear me just like thorns
Your face looks like the devil's,
I'm impaled upon your heart
But I still don't know what it is you
want from me
Do you need absolution for
a crime you cannot name?
Do you want someone to save you
from the shadow of your shame?
And you're screaming to be justified
for things you've done in greed
If I make myself your weapon,
boy, will that bring you relief?
Well, I still don't know what it is you want from me
Don't you know you're making a mess of me I'm just a man,
stop trying to make less of me I'm your friend after all
Or have you forgotten all the things we are?
I got my opinions,
some are carved in stone
But I bust that rock with my bare hands if
it means being alone
When you ask why I love you,
because you're sexy and you're smart
And for reasons known only to
God, we're connected at the heart
But I still don't know what it is
you want from me
I still don't know what it is you
want from me
I still don't know what it is you want
