Ballad of the Need

Ballad of the Need

Songtext für Tendonitis – Ballad of the Need

verse I
passion and compassion, selfless need
center of the world, in your sleep
wanted, needed, found, claimed and kept
used and broken heavy regret

bridge I
can you feel the need
filling all your nodes
can you feel the leech
feeding off your soul

chorus
your spirit gets emptied, day by day
less and less of you to stay
your soul dries out
out of the way
less and less of you to stay

alternate chorus (dropped)
darling, darling, baby don’t despair
possibilities everywhere
darling, darling, baby don’t deny
my love for you will never die

verse II
mindless thought adrift, and hard to find
everyone around you is blind
laughter in the air, brimming with need
filling every edge of your soul

bridge II
can you feel the burn
leaving you behind
every one around you
is blind

chorus
your spirit gets emptied, day by day
less and less of you to stay
your soul dries out, out of the way
less and less of you to stay
