Desperately Wanting

Past the road to your house

That you never called home

Where they turned out your lights

Though they say you'll never know

I remember runnin' through the wet grass

Fallin' a step behind

Both of us never tirin'

Desperately wanting

When they pumped out your guts

Filled you full of those pills

You were never quite right

Deservin' all the chills

Say the worst is over

Kicked it again

Then they ask what went wrong

When they turn you on again

They turn you on again

I remember runnin' through the wet grass

Fallin' a step behind

Both of us never tirin'

Desperately wanting

I remember runnin' through the wet grass

Fallin' a step behind

Both of us never tirin'

Desperately wanting

Kick them right in the face

Make them wish they weren't born

And if they bring up your name

Well, they'll 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

Fallin' a step behind

Both of us never tirin'

Desperately wanting

I remember runnin' through the wet grass

Fallin' a step behind

Both of us never tirin'

Desperately wanting

Oh, the letters have dropped off

Though they say you got them all

Finally figured out some things you'll never know

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

Fallin' a step behind

Both of us never tirin'

Desperately wanting

I remember runnin' through the wet grass

Fallin' a step behind

Both of us never tirin'

Desperately wanting
