Ender Will Save Us All

It’s just like you to contest
you wear it like a label on your breast
don’t you see what this takes of me?
A certain callousness complies
in your charm and in your pride
a hopeful look draped in despise
I want to give you whatever you need
What is it you need? Is it what I need?
I want to give you whatever you need
What is it you need? Is it within me?
It’s hard to explain how I am getting by on so little from you
It’s hard to believe that I would
let myself get so wrapped into you
There’s got to be something
that would be worthwhile for me to give to you
We need a connection but you
seem to push me far away from you
The harder I push the further I fall
Well you don’t mind me being headstrong
But you don’t want to sing along
Maybe it’s trite but I can always,
always, always, always, always be wrong
It’s just like you to contest
you wear it like a label on your breast
don’t you see what this takes of me?
A certain callousness complies
in your charm and in your pride
a hopeful look draped in despise
I want to give you whatever you need
What is it you need? Is it what I need?
I want to give you whatever you need
What is it you need? Is it within me?
It’s hard to explain how I am getting by on so little from you
It’s hard to believe that I would
let myself get so wrapped into you
There’s got to be something
that would be worthwhile for me to give to you
We need a connection but you
seem to push me far away from you, from you, from you, from you
The harder I push the further I fall
Well you don’t mind me being headstrong
But you don’t want to sing along
Maybe it’s trite but I can always,
always, always, always, always be wrong, be wrong
Try not to be Try not to be Try not to be Try not to be wrong
Try not to be wrong
