No matter where I turn it all looks the same.
I never sleep at night, I just stay up and wait.
But the burning in my blood never came.
Will I know it?
Will I know it?
Will I know it when I see it?
Will I know it?
Will I know it?
Will I know it when you're here?
I need you now, I need you more than ever before, before.
I need you now, I need you more than ever before, before.
I know the man I am is not who I should be.
The Devil take my hand says, "Child come with me."
My body shivers and aches. I can't break free.
Why do the things I hate come so naturally?
Will I know it?
Will I know it?
Will I know it when I see it?
Will I know it?
Will I know it?
Will I know it when you're here?
I need you now, I need you more than ever before, before.
I need you now, I need you more than ever before, before.
I need you now, I need you more than ever before, before.
I need you now, I need you more than ever before.
When we see the light when we're going home.
We'll dance on our graves with our bodies below.
We'll sing glory and Hallelujah.
-Paper Route
I've had this song on repeat for over half an hour now. It's haunting me. Yeah, I've heard it plenty of times before, but I went running the other day and I listened to it for the first time. Finally words have been put to something I've needed to hear and to say for months now, and I'm paralyzed with awe. So listen to it, and think about it for awhile.
