Out of earshot the lights are still hot
From the place she's been putting you on
It's hard to imagine you got what you want
When you can't picture anything else going wrong
I believe you might pick up and leave
If this allegory of the cave were not true
But these sitcoms and soap operas
Once so popular suddenly bitter me through

And do you need her
Or just need her to tell you you do

Isn't she everything
Isn't she everything and more
Isn't she everything
Isn't she everything you're for
Isn't she everything
Isn't she everything and more
Yeah yeah

Now my conscious has fettered me down
But my failures are weightless
It's easy to throw blame around
I'm no critic at heart
But your structure is seamless
Your spirit is sound
And the gall of the guardian fool
Who might take independence to use as a tool
Is it ignorance apathy point to this map of me
Touching the border of cruel

And do you need her
Or just need me to tell you you do

Isn't she everything
Isn't she everything and more
Isn't she everything
Isn't she everything you're dying for
Isn't she everything
Isn't she everything and more
Yeah yeah

You must have thought I thought love was scripted in the genes
You must have thought I thought love was everything

Isn't she everything
Isn't she everything and more
Isn't she everything
Isn't she everything you're dying for
Isn't she everything
Isn't she everything and more
Isn't she everything
Isn't she everything and more

And do you need her
Or just need me to tell you I do
