Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

2x

Stop the press, everything’s a mess

You can look alive, but you are not at rest.

 And i-ideas are flowing through your head

 A million miles an hour while lying in your bed

 A lucid life you never thought you’d lead

 Are you working everyday?

 Are you working just to bleed?

 I know, I know, I know, I know, I know

 You’re staring at the names of the famed

 that are dipped in gold

 The feeling you deserve what you’ve heard

 But it doesn’t go that way

 Oh, the tongues of men and angels

 I speak but lack love.

 Oh, love, will I stab you in the back?

 Working every day,

 I’m afraid I forgot to show what’s most important: love

 Here I am, dear Lord, tasting hints of fame

And I don’t want it anymore

 If it’s not you that I gain

Wanna fall at your feet

 Don’t wanna fall from your peace

I understand

 Inst:

 Have you ever been the man that just ran

 When you knew that God was talking?

 Have you ever heard his voice through the noise

 But just let it go away?

 Oh, the tongues of men and angels

 I speak but lack love.

 Oh, love, will I stab you in the back?

 How can I go with mine instead of yours

 When yours is always right

 I’m sorry just pour into me love.

 Here I am, dear Lord, tasting hints of fame

And I don’t want it anymore

 If it’s not you that I gain

Wanna fall at your feet

 Don’t wanna fall from your peace

I understand

 A heart at rest is harder now

 Don’t let it go away

 A hard earned pay, a hard earned pain

 Right now they’re just the same

 What’s the use, why work so hard

 When it’s not what you crave

 When what you need is: love.
