Why Do I Always Want The Things That I Can’t Have

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I've been looking for love in all the wrong places Seeing your eyes in strangers' faces Searching for God in all of my vices Staying out till the sun lit rises [Chorus] I, I light a cigarette Call myself a cab If only you were here, it wouldn't be so bad Why do I always want the things that I can't have? It's so sad [Verse 2] I've been dancing all night and my feet are hurting Taking the pills, but they're still not working Trying to get by in this lonely city [Chorus] I'm leaving tonight, do you wanna come with me? I, I know this little place That we could go relax Walk and run our fingers through the tips of the tall grass Why do I always want the things that I can't have? It's so sad [Bridge] Storms start to rise Hеlicopters are in the skiеs I feel this joy, but then it dies Why doesn't anybody realise We're on the edge of paradise We're on the edge of paradise [Verse 3] I've been staring at screens, my eyes are aching Losing my faith in this world we're making Listening to my father scream and Laid on the bathroom floor just dreaming [Chorus] Of a time, a time we will look back On all of this and laugh And slowly piece together all the bits of broken glass Why do I always want all the things I can't have? It's so sad It's so sad
