Lyrics for Bewilderbeast

I've been pissing in the wind I chance a foolish grin And dribbled on my chin Now the ground shifts beneath my feet The faces that I greet never know my name Just give me something I'll take nothing Just give me something I'll take nothing Now the drought is crippled by the rain That hammers on my pain We lose ourselves again But all we need Is to find a place to look Our worm is on its hook A love which dangles free Let's watch it swim Against the water's flow In doubt the courage grows With no guarantee Just give me something I'll take nothing Just give me something I'll take nothing And so it goes A moral to the tale As tortoise catches snail A strong heart will prevail It keeps on pumping It still needs something Just give it something I'll take nothing Just give it something To keep it pumping And I'll take nothing Just give me something
