All I Want

(album: What If Nothing - 2017)

Pull me up, off of the pavement
Dilated eyes and the blue sunrise, no
That can't be me, I must be mistaken
I've been an angel my whole life

How well do you know yourself?
How clear without the mirror of someone else
'Cuz sometimes my shadow gets the best of me
A black, black so pitch that I cannot breathe
And I cannot speak and I cannot hide
I guess you can't be free of what you keep inside
Well, how well do you know your limits
The deeper the dream, the longer you're in it

Maybe if I had a little more money
Maybe if I had a little more sex
Maybe with a little peace and quiet
Maybe I could make a little more sense of it

All that I want
All that I want

The river of cars keeps flowing
All I can see is what's in front of me
Uh, this isn't where I thought I was going
This isn't who I thought I would be

Met a man in a cab today
Moved here from across the ocean someplace
Where his family waits but he's all alone
To drive a cab all day and send it all back home
A woman felt bad and he flashed his eyes
And I could hear the joy in his voice
It was like there was nowhere in the world that he'd rather be
Than here in a cab, driving me

Maybe if I went out less on the weekend
Maybe if I just didn't exist
Maybe if I was straight
Maybe if I was vegan
Maybe if I still had you to kiss

All that I want
All that I want
All that I want
All that I want

I am my own sanctuary
I am my own hero
I am my own teacher
I am my own best friend
I am my own Friday night
I am my own love of my life
I am my own way out
I am my own sanctuary
I am my own sanctuary

Maybe if I had a little more money
Maybe if I had a little more sex
Maybe with a little peace and quiet
Maybe I could make a little more sense of it

All that I want (a little more sense of it)
All that I want (a little more sense of it)
All that I want
All that I want

(All that I want, all that I want, all that I want)
(All that I want, all that I want, all that I want)
