Not What You Need

I walk in late with a storm still on my skin;

Smile like I'm fine but I'm split within;

You ask for the truth,

I give you a spark;

A broken little lantern in the dark;

I can feel your hope include;

But I'm a ghost you almost know;

I know what you need, I know;

I'm the crack in the glass, the afterglow;

You want a hand that won't let go;

But I'm learning how to let things go;

I know what you need, no more;

Just a restless heart at your front door;

I try to be steady,

I try to be kind;

But every good intention fell out of line;

I carry your thunder under my tongue;

A song too heavy to be sung;

I can feel your hope lean close;

But I'm a ghost, you almost know;

I'll call what you need, I know;

I'm the crack in the glass, the effler glow;

You want a hand that won't let go;

But I'm learning how to let things go;

I know what you need, no more;

Just a restless heart at your front door;

Maybe love was never meant to save;

What keeps drowning in its own waves;

So I'll step back, I'll leave the light;

Not to hurt you, just to do what's right;

If I can't be home,

I'll still be true;

Even when I'm standing far from you;

I'm not what you need, I know;

I'm a crack in the glass, the afterglow;

You wanna help, I won't let go;

But I'm learning how to let loose;

I know what you need, no more;

Just a restless heart at your front door;

I'm not what you need tonight;

But I hope you find a quieter life;

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh;

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh;
