Lyrics:
An angel kissed my strings
While I slept last night
And her rhythm broke my hunger
And I died a little less
Well I just want to get some
Get some while I'm still tall
Oh, let's tell the world we're unheard
We're unsure
We're unstop
We're unstoppable Oh
Let's tell the girls to be strong
To be sure
To be heard
We want to be heard
And you're all
You're all I want
Yeah all I want
So tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me where have you been?
Well an angel kissed my hands
While I slept last night
And when I woke up this morning
God, I missed you something fierce
I just want to get some
Get some while I'm still tall
Oh, let's tell the world we're unheard
We're unsure
We're unstop
We're unstoppable Oh
Let's tell the girls to be strong
To be sure
To be heard
We want to be heard
And you're all
You're all I want
Yeah all I want
So tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me where have you been?
Fashion isn't dead
No it's just inside out
It's just inside out
She says she needs a priest
Wants to get closer to God
I say all I need's a ladder
I want to touch your sky
You want it all
Do you want it all?
Do you want it all?
Do you want it all?
And you're heavy in my heart
You're heavy in my hands
You're heavy in my mouth
Yes you're heavy in my day
You're heavy in my songs
You're heavy in light
And you're all that I want
Yeah you're all that I want
Yeah you're all that I want
God you're all that I want
Oh, you're all I want
