about

I would do anything for love... including that.

lyrics

Growl, I spit and stutter and howl
But still no thoughts will come out
About how badly I’ve always wanted you

I’ll croon, pride myself when I make groupies swoon
I’ll compare your grace to the moon
And still get no closer to you

There’s no weight beneath all these fractions
Love, I can’t bellow no louder, so what of my actions?

I’ll crack, I’ll crash hard just trying to kick the smack
And if I ain’t broke enough I’ll act
I’ll be somebody else if that’s what I have to do

I’ll lie, I’ll claim to be drunk, I’ll pretend to be high
I’ll even say that the child was never mine
Bet my derriere on any sort of derring-do

There’s no truth that I can’t experience
There’s no white, red, or black lie that I can’t take serious

I’ll wait, I’ll wait, I’ll wait, I’ll wait
I’ll huddle, I’ll cry myself to sleep
I’ll wait, I’ll commit myself, I’ll drive a model T, and then I’ll win a spelling bee
Naturally, no cheating, I’ll turn gay
I’ll wed Michael Stipe if that would make you pay attention to me

But of this much you can be glad
I promise I’ll never say I’ve always needed you this bad
That I’ve always needed you this bad
