Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1980657
Verse 1
I used to feel some guilt
Now I just feel empty
I wasn't supposed to bend
At least not this quickly

Chorus
I wanted to walk
Oh and you, you wanted to breathe
I wanted to talk
Oh and you, you wanted to sleep

Verse 2
Picked from the bloodline tree
It's green with envy
It's okay to lose a limb
When they get too heavy

Chorus
I wanted to walk
Oh and you, you wanted to breathe
I wanted to talk
Oh and you, you wanted to sleep

Refrain
Now, I want to believe
Yeah, I've got to believe
See Manchester Orchestra LiveGet tickets as low as $74 Chorus
Yeah, I wanted to walk
Oh and you, you wanted to breathe
And I wanted to talk
Oh and you, you wanted to sleep

Refrain
Now, I want to bеlieve
Yeah, I'vе got to believe
