All or Nothing
{ words & music by Simon Spire }
*
The world has started to shine
Or has it only begun?
Or has it finally died?
Something’s changed – it’s gone
Goodbye to all that I loved
Arm’s length is not enough
I’ll sell my shadow and all
My soul exchanging something whole
I’d take all that
I’ve dreamed and then I’d
Give it up, give it all up and
Die just one more time
Until it’s real until I see
Through Faustus’s eyes and
*
Every color fades to black and white it’s gloom
Nothing’s real anymore to me but you
And I can tell it’s all or nothing
I see now it’s all or nothing
Bury me I choose – all I want is you
*
I would build the world just like new
And then I’d drop it at once
And leave it all for you
I can’t stop till I see
Everything I thought was me
Alone and dead on the floor
There’s nothing more for me
*
Prechorus
*
Chorus
*
That’s why
I’m taking it all away I’ll say
Goodbye, I’m leaving it all if I could
Stare a little more at the sun I’m done
Move a little closer till it’s gone and then
I’d take my life and name and burn it all – gone – it’s all the same
Nothing can give me what I want
Nothing can give me what I want
*
Chorus
