Made me wonder if you even hear the same song that I hear
And whilst clumsily I fumbled o'er your body,
I tried to make you feel it and I tried to make you see it through my eyes
Thinkin' to myself, "She's so amazing...", when I couldn't help
Remembering the last time I thought someone was amazing
And I'm searching for a higher power and never even knowing that by searching I was losing half my mind, but now I know you
Now I know your war
You don't even answer
You don't even try
You don't even see that it's tearing up your mind
You don't even answer
But you don't need an army
You divide and conquer
Something in the way your body rose and fell with distant sighs
Made me wonder if you even sense the blindness in my eyes
And whilst clumsily I fumbled o'er your body,
I tried to make you feel it and I tried to make you see it through my eyes
Thinkin' to myself, "She's so amazing...", when I couldn't help
Remembering the last time I thought someone was amazing
And I'm searching for a higher power and never even knowing that by searching I was losing half my mind, but now I know you
Now I know your war
You don't even answer
You don't even try
You don't even see that it's tearing up your mind
You don't even answer
But you don't need an army
You divide and conquer
Could it be I'm wrong?
Can I be the man I need to be without your silent stare?
And that sin in your smile, oh?
Could it be I'm right?
Should I swallow up the night and let the flood gates open wide?
To reveal all I want
And reveal all I fear I am?
(assorted scatting)
And I'm searching for a higher power and never even knowing that by searching I was losing half my mind, but now I know you
God, I know your war
You don't even answer
You don't even try
Oh, you don't even see that it's tearing up your mind
You don't even answer
But you don't need an army
You divide and conquer
You divide and conquer
And I am such a sucker
And look out now, it's over
