          E
What do you want of me?
What do you want of me?
      C                   G 
I am hiding in the city dressed in rags
 C                       G 
Walking in the dead of night
               C
Looking for an answer (answer me)

        E        D
I have said I believe
            C                           G
Though my greatest friend, the gift of song is here
     C                    G
The gift is not enough tonight
   D        C
I fear, I breathe
                 G          C
Slowly, slowly what do I believe?
Is it strong enough?

Let me love (Let me love)
Show me the sun (Show me the sun)
'Cause my mind is moving at the speed of light
I know you place the jewel of love, your heart
In the middle of us all to fight it out
And we do it
We're waking up to that belief
And you will be saved

Wicked you (Wicked you)
Wicked me (Wicked me)
We are lost amongst the dreaming fields of pain
Praying on our ever-bended knees
That you'd dip your cooling finger in the well
And you touch us, I wanna be with Lazarus
I'm on the side of the weak
(Side of the weak)
(Side of the weak)

What I choose to do with my time
Is a gift I threw in your face
A hangover of youth, but the plain bloody truth
You suffer a while before ladders of
gold set you free

So I come (So I come)
Broke the seal (Broke the seal)
Broke the faith of every deal I ever made
Did the obvious, the weakest thing I could
And your mother and your beauty run to you
Let me foster my intentions to be wise
And to love you
