ROLLINS BAND - ALL I WANT
When I close my eyes, all I see are visions of you, and when I open my eyes,
your absence pulls me down, I try to but I can't shake myself loose.
I can't command my brain, all I do is shrink and think of one thing,
I'm sitting alone beside me, I'm digging a hole inside myself,
Dedicated, here I am, thinking of you with everything within me,
I know you'll never feel me, never see me, never know these thoughts of mine,
but in my mind you're always there, always smiling, always reaching out to me,
the days go on with heartache, the days go on with emptiness.
I burn down time, trying to find a way to get through to you,
I know I'm standing in line for a handout, that'll never come,
but still I don't care.
Feeling like, looking like, naked here is everything, here is everything I am.
Laid out, wide eyed, exposed, unable to forget you.
All I want is the world I think I found, when I look in to your eyes,
all I know is that I am tired of the world around me,
please, please, please, don't ignore me.
All I want is to somehow matter to you, even if all else rejection,
all I know is that I'm hammered, by the world around me,
please, please, please don't destroy me, don't destroy me, don't destroy me,
don't destroy me.
