lifeblood: songs: lyrics: all we need

no more meaning in your sayings
nothing left in all your words
i can tell you're only playing
who am i to judge your worth

and i can't say
(say)
you're something better than you seem
(something better than you seem)
can't say
(say)
there's something there i didn't see
(there i didn't see)
can't say
(say)
you're something better than you seem
i can't say
there's something there that i didn't see
oh no now

no more time for what's unspoken
(what's unspoken)
no more time for things i should have done
oh well
we're just (unknown) we're broken
oh (unknown)
but you know
there's no where left that we haven't gone
ah ah

and i can't say
(say)
you're something better than you seem
(something better than you seem)
can't say
(say)
there's something there i didn't see
(there i didn't see)
can't say
(say)
you're something better than you seem
i can't say
there's something there that i didn't see

and in our in company
oh (unknown)
there is no innocense to be
its all
the death of all we need
oh oh yeah
the death of all we need
oh oh yeah
the death of all we need
(need) oh yeah (unknown) (yeah yeah)

and when i look into your (unknown) eyes
there wan't something there that i need
oh yeah
i'm looking back at you without the lies
well i see something that i couldn't see
ah ah

and i can't say
(say)
you're something better than you seem
(something better than you seem)

i can't say
there's something there that i didn't see

and in our in company
there is no innocense to be
oh no

the death of all we need
(unknown)

and i said
