Something

Please, I need something
I don't know what it is only something
Like a tear that won't rip
Like a whip that won't crack
Like a stitch that won't hold
Like an itch that won't scratch
I need you

I, I want from you everything
Then I'll give to all that I never had
Like a line that won't catch
Like a match that won't strike
Like a globe that won't spin
Like a sim that won't liken
To anything, but to you

I am thirsty all the time
And are you a mirage or an oasis this time?
I don't know
I am thirsty all the time
And are you a mirage or an oasis this time?
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know

Behold what you see tonight
It's a trick that's as old and as the first disguise
When the snare starts to roll
And the cards are foretold
It just happened before you have realised
That the crash was a fraud
The applause an excuse
But the match and the line
And the catch spring to use
And a whip as precise
As the eyes of a muse
Clear the spell from my sights, and I...
I see you
I see you
I need something
