Emery - You Wanted It Lyrics
Run you coward, you runThese words crippled my confidenceThe hymn I can't escape fromThis is over and done withThis race has made me more than weary, I am deadI created everything here that I wanted to seeSo was that your plan, to leave me out?We were all reciting messages and pushing repeatBut this world you made does it let you breathDoes it let you feel anything but yourself?When was the last timeDoes it let you breathe?Does it let you feel anything but yourself?When was the last time you saw anyone else?Whispers and echoes of love fadingThe plans you made, you wanted itThe bitter taste, you wanted itWhat god became you wanted itBut the one thing you need you'll never getThere was more of you and less of meYou blamed it on the chemistryCan you close your eyes when you rest your head?It didn't have to be this way but you wanted itThey were just calendar daysI'm sure it's all written downBut if you'll let me just askIs this how you bring the crowd to their feet?You hurt because it wasn't about youAbout me?You're always scared the floor is gonna give wayI call the shotsWe could end this, we could end thisDon't you ever tell me what I've gotWhispers and echoes of love fadingThe plans you made, you wanted itThe bitter taste, you wanted itWhat god became you wanted itBut the one thing you need you'll never getThere was more of you and less of meYou blamed it on the chemistryCan you close your eyes when you rest your head?It didn't have to be this way but you wanted itI wanted, I wanted, I wanted, I wanted thisYou made it such a lonely worldSuch a very lonely worldYou bent the answers into questionsYou let the voice go unheardAnd you couldn't trust yourselfCause what if everything you feltMeant this was not yours aloneEvery single word, every single little word that was saidAnd all the simple fearsAnd all the nights that you cried in your bedHoping I was there but you told yourselfYou're old and aloneBut you were never the widow you left on your ownI was washed in the bloodI was born of a spirit but I drownedWhen you found me out thereRejoice, Rejoice the old King is deadLong live the new kingI am the new kingWhispers and echoes of love fading The plans you made, you wanted itThe bitter taste, you wanted itWhat god became you wanted itBut the one thing you need you'll never getThere was more of you and less of meYou blamed it on the chemistryCan you close your eyes when you rest your head?It didn't have to be this way but you wanted it
