lyrics

Don’t you want to love me some more?
Don’t you want to take what you came here for?
On the road leaving town
Where that sign’s fallen down
I can wait for you there all my life
And the train that you’re on
It’s a long time gone
Like the days that you leave behind

And in my hour of need
No one saw me bleed
No one heard me howl
And in my wasted days
Time was not afraid
To be my firing squad

Don’t you want to tear me apart?
Don’t you want to wait till the light turns dark?
In the southern sphere of my deepest fear
Where the hills have their eyes on my soul
That’s where you can do your worst
Like a poet giving birth
Like a madman at the side of the road

And in my hour of need
No one saw me bleed
No one heard me howl
And in my wasted days
Time was not afraid
To be my firing squad

Now love doesn’t live here anymore
And I know what the world is for

Don’t you want to raise the alarm?
Don’t you want to say I have done you harm?
I can see looking back
That my train went off the tracks
And the world, oh the world wasn’t there
And I know now what it’s for
I know what waits behind its door
I know the loneliness has gotten to me (chorus)

Now love doesn’t live here anymore
And I know what the world is for
I know what the world is for
