Normals - Everything lyrics

rate me

She walks to the table<br />

With an apron full of stains and asks<br />

"Hey sir, what can I get for you today?"<br />

I try to be polite, make nice conversation<br />

But the food's no good<br />

She doesn't even seem to notice me here<br />

Her shoulders slumped <br />

I see her tear stained eyes head back <br />

Through the double swinging doors<br />

Serving pies was not her goal in life<br />

I leave a tip like I think Jesus would and smile<br />

"Thanks a lot, have a nice day" <br />

And I'm on my way<br />

Jesus, what would You do?<br />

Can You teach me how to love like You?<br />

<br />

I wanna give You everything<br />

But I've got nothing of my own at all<br />

And if I give what I have not got<br />

Will You fill me up and make me whole<br />

<br />

I see him sitting by the side of the building near the street sign<br />

He's got a sign saying "I will work for food"<br />

He looks up with his glazed over eyes, says<br />

"How 'bout a dollar for a veteran, a fellow American"<br />

Empty stomach, empty mind, empty soul<br />

Have I got the time to feed him a little broken bread?<br />

No<br />

Do I toss up a prayer as I walk on by<br />

Or give him a tract and a weak fake smile<br />

Or do I take the time to show him a little love?<br />

Don't feel like I've got anything to give<br />

So I guess I've got nothing to lose<br />

Yeaahhh<br />

<br />

I wanna give Youe verything<br />

But I've got nothing of my own at all<br />

And if I give what I have not got<br />

Will You fill me up and make me whole<br />

<br />

I come back a couple weeks later<br />

See the same apron, same stains, same split end hair pulled back<br />

She comes near and says <br />

"Hey mister, your smile picked me up the other day<br />

Just thought I'd say thanks"<br />

Well I don't know why<br />

It takes all my effort to try<br />

Yeaahhh<br />

<br />

I wanna give You everything<br />

But I've got nothing of my own at all<br />

And if I give what I have not got<br />

Will You fill me up and make me whole<br />

Make me whole<br />

Make me whole<br />

<br />

She walks to the table <br />

With an apron full of stains and asks<br />

"Hey sir, what can I get for you today?"
