Songtext Do the things (you want) Emery

Do the things (you want)

Let's write the songs that they want
I thought they'd love us but they don't
They don't

With tails stuck between our legs...
We'll find a home made of regret
Well stay shipwrecked
And sinking
What a terrible thought
To be thinking

You were with us but you left these thoughts in your head
Were not who were supposed to be,
With all the symptoms
Of the sickness we have seen
Are you better off leaving?

Tough words held behind my teeth...
Pleading that they'd be set free
But they're empty
That's what some always will want
A game on who's best with their tongues...
That are faceless and groundless

[Chorus]

With every song that you sing
It's yours to the heart,
And when you fly, you'll fall
Then a new one will start.
My eyes burn with hope
That you hear what you say.
If this was just for today
Then we never could care

And the music it makes
My feet move too...
It's the same as the music
That's inside of you

The truth is that when
You can see past yourself
Your song is the same
As everyone else...

Let's write the songs that they want
I thought they'd love us but they don't
They don't

[Chorus]
