Lyrics
I know something's very wrong The pulse returns the prodigal sons With blackout hearts, the flowered news With skull designs upon my shoes I can't give everything I can't give everything Away I can't give everything Away Seeing more and feeling less Saying no but meaning yes This is all I ever meant That's the message that I sent I can't give everything I can't give everything Away I can't give everything Away I can't give everything I can't give everything Away I can't give everything Away I know something's very wrong The pulse returns the prodigal sons With blackout hearts, the flowered news With skull designs upon my shoes I can't give everything I can't give everything Away I can't give everything Away I can't give everything I can't give everything Away I can't give everything Away
