Electricity

Come back to me

Electricity

I’m no machine

But something’s missing in me

 

Birds don’t need it

Electricity

I’m not a bird

But I’m free-falling

Maybe something’s underneath me

Bigger than the air that we breathe

 

Plants don’t need it

Electricity

I’m not a tree

Or is this low-down feeling

Tying something underneath me

Holding all my living steady

 

Only in my weakness

I want some light

 

The Earth don’t need it

Electricity

I’m not an earth

But I feel something stirring

Bigger than the ground beneath me

Stronger than the military

 

The stars don’t need it

Electricity

I’m not a star

But I feel something in me

Brighter than

The lights we leave on

Better than the television

 

Only in my weakness

I want some light

 

Stay far from me

Electricity

I’m no machine

And now that I forgot you

I hear better

I see brighter

I feel deeper

I want darker

 

Only in my weakness

I want you back

 

I need a light to believe in

I need a light to believe in

I need a light to believe in

But you’re always leaving

I need a light to believe in

I need a light to believe in

I need a light to believe in

I need a light to believe in

I need a light to believe in
