All This Useless Energy

Lyrics for All This Useless Energy

Darkness holds Begging me to lose control We wrestle it back and forth 'til urban silence Cuts through night With a scalpel for the light That bleeds through the margins And leaves me semi-conscious. I haven't found the rhythm yet To anchor down my life. I didn't know I needed one To hold me through the night. Ain't it great, Smashing through the interstate Where we guess the futures of Our concurrent strangers? They're on their way to the doctor or to raise Grandkids of young twenty-somethings And teenagers. I'm worried of abandoning The joys that framed my life But all this useless energy Won't hold me through the night. Oh please, You're not fooling anyone When you say you tried your best 'Cause you can't be your best anything When you can't get any rest. Oh please, You're not fooling anyone When you say you tried your best 'Cause you can't be your best anything When you can't get any rest. I'm worried of abandoning The joys that framed my life But all this useless energy Won't hold me through the night. Won't hold me through the night. Won't hold me through Won't hold me through the night.
