I wanted somethingnThat's purer than the waternLike we werennIt's not there nownIneloquence and angernAre all we havennLike Saturn's ringsnAn icy loop around menToo hard to holdnnLash out firstnAt all the things we don't likenOr understandnn[Chorus]nAnd it's beginning to get to menThat I know more of the stars and seanThan I do of what's in your headnBarely touching in our cold bednAre you beginning to get my pointnThat all this fighting with aching jointsnIt's doing nothing but tire us out?nNo one knows what this fight's aboutnnThe answered phonenThe lonely sound of your voicenFrozen in timennI only neednThe compass that you gave menTo guide me onnn[Chorus]nnAre you beginning to get my pointnThat all this fighting with aching jointsnIt's doing nothing but tire us out?nAnd no one knows what this fight's aboutnnIt's so thrilling but also wrongnDon't have to prove that you are so strongn'Cause I can carry you on my backnAfter our enemies attacknnI tried to tell you before I leftnBut I was screaming under my breathnYou are the only thing that makes sensenJust ignore all this present tensennWe need to feel breathless with lovenAnd not collapse under its weightnI'm gasping for the air to fillnMy lungs with everything I've lostnnWe need to feel breathless with lovenAnd not collapse under its weightnI'm gasping for the air to fillnMy lungs with everything I've lost
