SHC - Foster The People

Written by：Mark Foster/Isom Innis/Mark Pontius

Omnipotent

You're our secret

It's worth keeping

And now I'm keeping my mouth shut

On the weekends

I won't hang out with anybody else

The pavement

Always baking

What's it want from me

And I keep falling backwards

Looking for relief

Want to be free

I've been counting all the minutes

And the days have been counting me

I want to live my life again

But you won't

I'll never understand the winds

But you do

I didn't know I was afraid

But you did

I want to do it again

Well I've been sleeping

Waiting for something

But to feel nothing

At all avoid the call

Sometimes I'm reckless

Sometimes misdirected

Sometimes when I'm tested

I tend to do nothing at all

When I'm alone

There's a ghost that keeps talking

And I know there's gotta be more

For sure

I want to live my life again

But you won't

I'll never understand the winds

But you do

I didn't know I was afraid

But you did

I want to do it again

Omnipotent

I've been numbing my thoughts for hours

I know you wanted to save me from myself

And we've been wilting and young for seeds

And I can't compete

Until I'm strung to the field

What's real

I want to live my life again

But you won't

I'll never understand the winds

But you do

I didn't know I was afraid

But you did

I want to do it again

Do you want to live forever
