BETTER THAN EZRA

- Desperately Wanting Lyrics

Past the road to your house
Will you never called home?
Where they turned out the lights
Though they say you'll never know

I remember runnin'
Through the wet grass
Falling a step behind
Both of us never tirin'
Desperately wantin'

When they pumped out your guts
Filled you full of those pills
You were never quite right
Deserving all the chills

They say the worst is over
Kick it over again
Then they ask what went wrong
When they turn you on again
Yeah, they turn you on again

I remember runnin'
Through the wet grass
Falling a step behind
Both of us never tirin'
Desperately wantin'

I remember runnin'
Through the wet grass
Falling a step behind
Both of us never tirin'
Desperately wantin'

Kick them right in the face
Make them wish they weren't born
And if they bring up your name
Well, say you won the war
Baby, burst in the world
Never given a chance
Then they ask what went wrong
When you never had it right
Though you never had it right

I remember runnin'
Through the wet grass
Falling a step behind
Both of us never tirin'
Desperately wantin'

I remember runnin'
Through the wet grass
Falling a step behind
Both of us never tirin'
Desperately wantin'

Oh oh, the letters have dropped off
Though they say you got them all
I finally figured out
Some things you'll never know, no

Take back your life
Let me inside
We'll find the door
If you care, if you care to anymore

I remember runnin'
Through the wet grass
Falling a step behind
Both of us never tirin'
Desperately wantin'

I remember runnin'
Through the wet grass
Falling a step behind
Both of us never tirin'
Desperately wantin'
