Wanted
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.
I have wandered far and wide
For something real, something to die for
But I have found you and you do not see
All that is me, all that is true
I am more than you will see
I am more than you will need
I am more than you will see
More than wanted
As you float the flimsy surface
You should know life lies beneath it
And don't pretend you feel what I feel
You live illusion and I am real
I am more than you will see
I am more than you will need
I am more than you will see
More than wanted
I know, I know you
Like the way you feel when I play
I know, I know you
Don't really hear what I say
I know, I know you
Are waiting for something to raid
I know, I know you
Wish you could be more than you say
I have wandered far and wide
For something real, something to die for
But I have found you and you do not see
All that is me, all that is true
And I am more than you will see
I am more than you will need
I am more than you will see
More than wanted
More than you'll love, more than you'll hate
More than you'll hold, more than wanted
More than you'll crave, more than you'll cherish
More than you'll have, more than wanted
