Can't ever get what you want
When you don't know what it is
I'm not having any fun
All the shortcuts made me spin
I was a headlight staring down an exit sign
I had my heart in my throat and a low fuel light
I let it pass me by, the past three times
Another pattern in the way I'm wired
Now, all of the lights in the house are on
No more salt for the wounds I depend upon
All the spark of divine intervention that I am
Still terrified I left behind
Hold steady, show me how to go without
I only find my footing when I lose myself
Can't do whatever you want
When you don't know when to quit
Cleared out the smoke in my lungs
And a 10-year migraine that I couldn't kick
And now that everything's bright, I guess I'm fine
But there's an art in the dark that took years to refine
Now, all of the lights in the house are on
No more salt for the wounds I depend upon
All the spark of divine intervention that I am
Still terrified I left behind
Hold steady, show me how to go without
I only find my footing when I lose myself
A lightning strike to my safe place
A fall from grace, the classic case
An awful man that shares my face
I sit and stare, the mirror breaks
So just know, I'm healing
Even though it don't feel like it
I used to feel my way through the dark
Do you know who you are?
Do you know who you are?
All of the lights in the house are on
No more salt for the wounds I depend upon
All the spark of divine intervention that I am
Still terrified I left behind
Hold steady, show me how to go without
I only find my footing when I lose myself
