The Verve Pipe - What Might Have Been Lyrics

Shoulders carry load-bearing weight
Head, an anchor, forfeit The Great Unknown
Wondering what might have been

Eyes empty give in to sleep
Dream of a lifetime into the deep unknown
Wondering what might have been

You give all the love, all the love that you wish to get
And you takeyou take what you need

These are the ills of a modern ballet
You dance in the throes of a painful fate unknown
Wondering what might have been

You bleed real blood for the love that you wish to get
And you take, you take what you need
(Loveyou're giving love)

You bleed real blood for the love that you wish to get
And you take, you only take just what you need
And what you need is more love
But what you want is more thrill
To explore it still
What might have been
