What I Need
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Chains and shackels on my feet
With links that run too deep
For me to break free
As a king returns for an earth that burns
To reclaim the one's he's waited for
And I wonder if I'll be able
CHORUS:
What is it I need tonight to make it home?
When I'm held back by my heart of stone
Why am I still denied despite all my good deeds?
Is it a question of what I've done,
or a question of what I need?
Through my window I see another man
He does what he can, hits his wife
And his only kid has ran
As a king returns for an earth that burns
To reclaim to one's he's waited for
And I wonder if he's able
What is it he needs tonight to make it home?
When he's held back by his own heart of stone
Why is he still denied despite all his bad deeds?
Is it a question of what he lacks,
or a question of what he needs?
BRDIGE:
What kind of angel could it be?
Telling me that if, if I try myself I'll falter till
I lay myself on the alter
Holy, Holy, Holy
Lord God Almighty
Early in the morning
My soul will rise to thee
Holy, Holy, Holy
Merciful and Mighty
God in three persons
Blessed Trinity
What is it I need tonight to make it home?
When I'm held back by my heart of stone
Why am I still denied despite all my good deeds?
Is it a question of what I've done,
or a question of what I need?
Is it a question of what I lack,
or a question of what I need?
