ELON-SUN-0642 - Too Loud to Hear Myself

[Verse]
I wake up, before the sun can blink
looking through the kitchen window
I watch the trees silently sway
The night won’t tell me what the dawn might say
The night’s still holding on, but dawn is creeping in

[Verse]
The kitchen table beckons me 
sit down, get your head straight
Hot coffee with a hit of whiskey
adds a little color to the day  
Sun coming up
that used to be enough....

[Verse]
Is it wrong to want more
of what I used to be 
before life got 
complicated and hard
and the dealer started dealing shitty cards

[Pre-chorus]
They say a man needs a purpose
to feel like a man 
but a woman does too 
My purpose was always loving you 

[Chorus]
I love you still
I always will
But there's a voice in my head I can't keep still
I've always been the roots
but now, I crave the sky
I want more
 And I don't know why 
I don't know why 

[Bridge]
I have boxes full of journals
Dreams I never chased
Tickets I never booked
Plans I never made
He will always hold me to his heart
I know this is true 
But what if I could find my purpose
And still come home to you?

[Pre-chorus]
They say a man needs a purpose
to feel like a man 
But a woman does too 
My purpose was always loving you 

[Chorus]
I love you still
I always will
But there's a voice in my head I can't keep still
I've always been the roots
but now, I crave the sky
I want more
And I don't know why 
I don't know why 

[Verse]
Is it wrong to ache
For something I can’t name
If I had the world at my feet 
Would I feel the same?

Would I feel the same...
Or to my shame
Would I still want more?
Would I still want more?

Or would I ultimately see
"more" is not always what it seems...
