All That Remains

(album: Love Is A Basic Need - 2016)

Have you ever had a photo
Something you could hold close
Filling you with false hope and lies?
I know you wish that I would let go
All I ever do though
Is wait for you to care more each time

What if everything we've done, everything we tried
Everything we shared was in my imagination?
I try to make it whole, try to make it right
Like I've got you there in the palm of my hand

Maybe I don't have control of anything
Maybe the world doesn't spin 'cause I want it to spin
Maybe the king didn't die and make me king
All my life I taste it, all my life you take it away

A day that I remember
Like a buried treasure
The two of us together again
I know you'll never say no
All you gotta do though
Is give me enough rope

I know everything we've done, everything we tried
Everything we shared was in my imagination
I try to make it whole, try to make it right
You always have me there in the palm of your hand

Maybe I don't have control of anything
Maybe the world doesn't spin 'cause I want it to spin
Maybe the king didn't die and make me king
All my life I taste it, all my life you take it away

Are you ready? Are you ready?
I know you've got my number
Don't wait till I go under
I'm ready, yes, I'm ready
When all is lost and broken
I'll still give you all that remains

When all is lost and broken
I'll still give you all that remains

Have you ever had a photo
Something you won't let go
Filling you with false hope?
