it's filling you
it's killing me
it's filling you
it's killing me
and how, how could I...
how, how could I...
how, how could I
how could I

It's true: Everyone needs a reason to stay alive- someone who justifies your existence. Someone who loves you. Not beyond all reason. Just loves you. Even just shows an interest. Even someone who doesn't exist, or isn't yours. No, no! They don't even have to love you! They just have to be there to love! Target for your arrows. Magnetic pole to drag on your compass needle and stop it spinning and spinning and tell you where you're heading and...Someone to soak up all the yearning.
