The Avett Brothers - Ill With Want lyrics

rate me

I am sick with wanting and it's evil and it's daunting<br />

How I let everything I cherish lay to waste<br />

I am lost in greed, this time it's definitely me<br />

I point fingers but there's no one there to blame<br />

<br />

A need for something, now let me break it down again<br />

A need for something but not more medicine<br />

<br />

I am sick of wanting and it's evil how it's got me<br />

And every day is worse than the one before<br />

The more I have the more I think I'm almost where I need to be<br />

If only I could get a little more<br />

<br />

A need for something, now let me break it down again<br />

A need for something but not more medicine<br />

<br />

Something has me, oh something has me<br />

Acting like someone I don't wanna be<br />

Something has me, oh something has me<br />

Acting like someone I know isn't me<br />

Ill with want and poisoned by this ugly greed<br />

<br />

Temporary is my time, ain't nothing on this world that's mine<br />

Except the will I found to carry on<br />

Free is not your right to chose<br />

It's answering what's asked of you<br />

To give the love you find until it's gone<br />

<br />

A need for something, now let me break it down again<br />

A need for something but not more medicine <br />

<br />

Something has me, oh something has me<br />

Acting like someone I don't wanna be<br />

Something has me, oh something has me<br />

Acting like someone I know isn't me<br />

Ill with want and poisoned by this ugly greed<br />

Ill with want and poisoned by this ugly greed<br />

Ill with want and poisoned by this ugly greed

<br />
