Motel

Meg Myers

You′re weak
Broken in a motel
You blinkTears are falling down
Down
Down
And you're free
Free inside your own hell
You speak
Someone let me out
Out
Out

And I can′t stop this pain!
It only grow-oh-oh-oo-ohs!
Tell me why I always feel alone!
And I can't fight this feeling
Anymo-oh-oh-oo-oh!
Show me what I'm really living for!

I wanna love, wanna live!
Wanna breathe, wanna give!
Wanna yo-oh-oh-ee-oh!
But it′s hard and it′s dark
And we're doomed from the start!
Gonna yo-oh-oh-ee-oh!
I wanna love, wanna live!
Wanna breathe, wanna give!
Wanna yo-oh-oh-ee-oh!
But it′s hard and it's dark
And I′m falling apart
Gonna yo-oh-oh-ee-oh!

Your dreams
Slowly turn against you
Your feet
Sink into the ground
Ground
Ground
And, you bleed
Naked in a black room
You scream
Someone let me out!
Out!
Out!

An' I can′t stop this pain!
It only grow-oh-oh-oo-ohs!
Tell me why I always feel alone!
And I can't fight this feeling
Anymo-oh-oh-oo-oh!
Show me what I'm really living for!

I wanna love, wanna live!
Wanna breathe, wanna give!
Wanna yo-oh-oh-ee-oh!
But it′s hard and it′s dark
And we're doomed from the start!
Gonna yo-oh-oh-ee-oh!
I wanna love, wanna live!
Wanna breathe, wanna give!
Wanna yo-oh-oh-ee-oh!
But it′s hard and it's dark
And I′m falling apart
Gonna yo-oh-oh-ee-oh!

"How come that, uh, most of your songs are sad songs?"
"Well, uh, you know, I don't think they′re all that sad"
"Some, I have a few, that are just, that aren't sad, they're like, hopeless" (hopeless, hopeless...)
"A totally hopeless situation, and the rest aren′t sad, they′re just the way it goes, kinda"
"I mean, you know? You don't think life′s sad?" (Life's sad, life′s sad...)
"No"
"But, from recognizing the sadness, you can, uh, put it aside and be happy and enjoy the happy side of life"

I wanna love, wanna live!
Wanna breathe, wanna give!
Wanna yo-oh-oh-ee-oh!
But it's hard and it′s dark
And we're doomed from the start!
Gonna yo-oh-oh-ee-oh!
I wanna love, wanna live!
Wanna breathe, wanna give!
Wanna yo-oh-oh-ee-oh!
But it's hard and it′s dark
And I′m falling apart
Gonna yo-oh-oh-ee-oh!

Ooooo, yo-oh-oh-ee-oh!
Oo-ooo, yo-oh-oh-ee-oh!
Oo-ooo, yo-oh-oh-ee-oh!
Oo-ooo, yo-oh-oh-ee-oh!
