All I Want Is Everything

Blitz Kids

We are the good youth
We deal in dead truth
We only care about what we can amend
We paid our own dues
We slung our own noose
We wear our hearts upon our sleeves 'til the end

When I was born and raised
All I wanted was to feel the pain
I thought that everyone should feel this way
So I sacrificed my glory days

Now I'm here, I'm alive but barely
I feel so contrived
A leaning tower of possibilities built up
On all these lies
'Cos it ain't worth it, the grass is black
Will someone please just take me back
All I want is everything I've always had

All I want, all I want, all I want, is everything 
So now I'm finally free to be anything
I want to be
I can't make my mind up on which me
That I really want the world to see
Because I'm here, I'm alive but briefly
Blinded by the lights, 
When the flares die out my heart cries out

Is this all that's inside
It wasn't worth it, the grass is black
Will someone please just take me back
All I want was everything I've always had

All I want, all I want, all I want, is everything 
I've lost my faith in what I always thought was everything
(And the confidence I crave, is all I need now to be saved)
And the false idols that I fought to be just
Like were all just bought and so I sing
(And the life I've always craved is full of
Crooked little hearts that can't be saved)

When I was born and raised
All I wanted was to feel the pain

We are the good youth
We deal in dead truth
We only care about what we can amend
We paid our own dues
We slung our own noose
We wear our hearts upon our sleeves 'til the end
