Love Thing 1.0

[Intro]
I need something, I need some sweet thing
I need something
To help me get on, help me get on by
Love thing

[Verse 1]
Sometimes I feel like I've been trapped in a container
Pushed through a strainer, but I ain't no complainer
Think I'm going crazy, there, now I'm insaner
What could be plainer, it's a no-brainer

The truth is always wherever you find it
Throw back the curtain, see what's behind it
Look hard at life and the ties that bind it
Day after day we must be reminded

[Pre-Chorus]
Everything I had is gone, it's so dark it must be dawn
Where's that reason to go, reason to go on and on

[Chorus 1]
Give what you ain't got to give, Lord have mercy on me
Drinking up blood and sweat and tears, I ain't afraid to ask
Give it to me
Love thing
Well being
Love thing, love thing

[Verse 2]
Why do I always look down when I want to look up
Why do I shake somebody down when I'm feeling shook up
Why do I wander around when I want to hook up
Why am I puttin' it down when I want to pick up

One of these days I'm gonna make my decision
And act upon it while I still got volition
But I've got so many ideas in collision
It makes it hard to be a man with a mission

[Pre-Chorus]
I need something, I need some sweet thing
I need something to help me get on, help me get on by
I need something to clear my head
I need something to warm my bed
I need something, some sweet thing

Everything I had is gone, it's so dark it must be dawn
Where's that reason to go, reason to go on and on

[Chorus 1]
Give what you ain't got to give, Lord have mercy on me
Drinking up blood and sweat and tears, I ain't afraid to ask
Give it to me
Love thing (love thing)
Well being
(Love thing)

[Chorus 2]
Tell me lies, I know the truth but tell me lies
Just like a breath of fresh air blowing through my lonely spirit
Love thing
Well being
Love thing
