— LYRICS
Verse 1
I still look at you with eyes that want you
when you move, you make my oceans move too
if i hear my name, i will run your way
Can we say that we love each other
can we play like there ain’t no other
if i hear my name, i will run your way
Chorus
it’s my desire that you feed, you know just what I need
you got power, you got power
you got power over me
I give my all now, cant you see, why wont you set me free?
you got power, you got power
you got power over me
verse 2
I was lost until i found me in you
I saw i side of me that I was scared to
but now I hear my name and i’m running your way
all I feel as i get closer to you
is the Desire to move like you do
so now I hear my name and i’m running your way
Pre
I am ready now
Chorus
it’s my desire that you feed, you know just what i need
you got power, you got power
you got power over me
I give my all now, cant you see, why wont you set me free?
you got power, you got power
you got power over me
Outro
you’re the one that seduced me, lured me in with your beauty, now i know that you used me
all you did was confuse me, youre no longer what i need, touch me slow, feel my heart bleed
Many of us have been lost in our lives and some more than once. Its a terrifying thing to encounter and some of us have to go through it alone. The feeling of emptiness, confusion and not knowing what road to take really takes a toll on you. Everything seems to be falling apart around you and the walls that kept you safe are crumbling down. I wrote this song about a friend of mine who I helped get into rehab. I couldn’t let him keep going down the dark road he was on so I had to call an intervention. I had no idea how he would take it and was afraid of losing my friendship. That night turned out to be one of of the most important and life-changing moments of both our lives.
You can insert your own life story into these words. This is for anyone who’s lost and for the ones that have helped others find their way. J
Lyrics:
How the hell did we wind up here?
You’re hittin rock bottom and I’m full of fear
The cold wind has frozen your heart
Lets re-write this story and make it a long one
It’s broken and falling apart
I won’t let you lose who you are
You’re lost in this lonely light
Trying to kill the pain youew feeling
Lost but I’m here tonight
Trying to chase away your demons
I’ll scream it
I mean it
Im a stand by you till you find what you’ve lost
So much darkness in this space
You’ve come so far to have fallen from grace
The cold wind has frozen your heart
Lets re-write this story and make it a long one
It’s broken and falling apart
I won’t let you lose who you are
You’re lost in this lonely light
Trying to kill the pain youre feeling
Lost but I’m here tonight
Trying to chase away your demons
I’ll scream it
I mean it
Im a stand by you till you find what you’ve lost
The cold wind has frozen your heart
Lets re-write this story and make it a long one
It’s broken and falling apart
I won’t let you loose who you are
You’re lost in this lonely light
Trying to kill the pain youre feeling
Lost but I’m here tonight
Trying to chase away your demons
I’ll scream it
I mean it
Im a stand by you till you find what you’ve lost
Im a stand by you till you find what you’ve lost
Im a stand by you till you find what you’ve lost
