Everything But You

(album: Strike A Nerve - 2022)

I smile but it rarely reaches my eyes
I don't know what you're wanting me to say
I laugh but it fades to give away my lie
I know what you wanted me to say

"Yes I'm sorry"
"Please don't worry"
Of all the things you feel nothing is real

I let go and my mind grows numb
You can't know what that means for me
I tried but we can't outrun
The daylight for the setting sun

I hate everyone
I hate everything
I hate everyone and everything but you

My life and my blood
Sand tracing lines
I wish for nothing more than to stay

Wait, wait for me
What's the hurry
All the words we steal are just time to kill

I let go and my mind grows numb
You can't know what that means for me
I tried but we can't outrun
The daylight for the setting sun

I let go and my mind grows numb
You can't know what that means for me
I tried but we can't outrun
The daylight for the setting sun

Let go, let your mind grow numb
You know what that means to me
I tried but we can't outrun
The daylight for the setting sun

I hate everyone
I hate everything
I hate everyone (and everything but you)
