Everything I've written lately lacks substance I feel like a fraud But I'll still perform them for you with four chords And soak in the applause 'Cos I need to feel like you love me So I'll be the pen for your desires I'll be the ashes left over The thunder that echoes the lightning That started your fires Everything I've written lately lacks heart It's all mirrors and smoke Life keeps delivering punchlines But somewhere along the way I missed the joke But I need to feel like you love me So I'll paint a smile, it's tattooed on my face I'll be your ivory tower, I'll build your Rome And I'll fall from your grace And I'll be the fire that burned brighter Than you ever thought that it could I'll be the forest that stands for millennia No rivers or streams or springs I'll be the flood And when the lakes have all dried And the forests have burned When the comfort of darkness In death has been earned I'll be the echo left over The thunder where lightning once stood I'll be the remnants of love broken hearted The shadow of good Everything I've written lately lacks light I feel shrouded in dark My shoes with no soles, my jeans full of holes And my sleeve lacking heart But I need to feel like you love me So I'll sew one in with crimson thread I'll be the frayed edges under the seams I'll be the words never said And I'll be the fire that burned brighter Than you ever thought that it could I'll be the forest that stands for millennia No rivers or streams or springs I'll be the flood And when the lakes have all dried And the forests have burned When the comfort of darkness In death has been earned I'll be the echo left over The thunder where lightning once stood I'll be the remnants of love broken hearted The shadow of good When the darkness is over And tainted hearts sober When night is defeated And the truth's at your feet It says on through the rapture Your soul's for the capture The angels will sing As they welcome their king Welcome home (The angel's will sing) Welcome home You were the fire that burned brighter Than we ever thought that you could You were the forest that stood for millennia No rivers or streams or springs You were the flood Now the lakes have all dried And the forests have burned The comfort of darkness in death You have earned Now you're the echo left over The thunder where lightning once stood Now you're the remnants of love broken hearted The shadow of good
