Integrity Blues
Desires Unmet: Exploring Loneliness and Longing in 'Integrity Blues'
Lyrics
I wish I could hold
I desire the ability to embrace
I wish I could touch
I desire the ability to physically connect
But a fool just wants and wants
A foolish person only craves and desires
It's all what you do when no one cares
Actions matter when no one is paying attention
No one's chasing you
No one is pursuing you
No one's making you
No one is compelling you
Spend lonely nights poisoned through and through
Spend nights alone, poisoned internally
It's all what you do when no one is there
Actions matter when no one is present
It's all what you do when no one cares
Actions matter when no one cares
I get lost and think
I become lost in thought
Lose myself to dreams
I lose myself in dreams
The world moves anyway
The world continues its motion regardless
The world will have it's say
The world will express its opinion
Lord, I'm wondering if what you're telling me
Reflecting on whether what is communicated to me
Is I've got work to do
Is that I have tasks to accomplish
Yes, I've got work to do
Indeed, I have tasks to accomplish
I wish I could hold
I wish I could embrace
I wish I could touch
I wish I could physically connect
But a fool just wants and wants and wants and wants
A foolish person endlessly craves and desires
All what you do when no one is there
Actions matter when no one is present
It's all what you do when no one cares
Actions matter when no one cares
