What You Wanted

Do i need to say it over again, dont make it like this
Ive already said the words, spread them out like a sea
And your caught up in this, clash of waves crashing on me
Id try to keep you out of all this but theres no other way
Your a part of what i do now, these things to which i commit
Im afraid that my secrets like anchors could sink ships

 

I know that this is the way you wanted it
But how do you feel now
Ive told you all that you wanted to know
Was it the right thing
I know that this is what you wanted, but
Did i do the right thing
Telling you all the things id been hiding

 

Send out for the planes to come and bomb the whole coast
Ive told you most everything, well all most, see ive
Still been holding back on what i think its safe to tell you
Maybe im not as trusting as i should be, or maybe im right maybe
Itd be better to keep you out of the rain, of things i wouldnt say
Could you honestly say youd be ok if i was something you detest

 

I know that this is the way you wanted it
But how do you feel now
Ive told you all that you wanted to know
Was it the right thing
I know that this is what you wanted, but
Did i do the right thing
Telling you all the things id been hiding

 

See now you know what i am, you know what ive gone and done
You know my hearts gone with bullets from fired guns, so its
All over and done with i guess, thats all i could really bring myself to say
Tell me that youll still be thinking of me, with every passing day
That im gone because i ran from you, who loved me anyway
Tell me that i left because you loved me too much

 

I cant face you like this
I am what i am, ive done what ive done
Ive fired guns and killed men
Ive indulged in sins and passion
That didnt mean anything
I know that this is what you
That didnt mean
I know that this is what
