Why is it that you can always get what you want, but never what you need? Something always seems so distant, like no matter what I do, I'll never have what will make me whole. If it's that perfect guy, the perfect job, the lost connection with a good friend... You really can never have it all.

"Fix You"

When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
When the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

High up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
If you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I...Tears stream down on your face
I promise you I will learn from the mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I...Lights will guide you homeAnd ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

That's the question isn't it? Why do we always feel like something's missing? But I think what we need to start asking is, why are always looking for something else, and will that something else actually fullfil us?

I don't think it will. I think the REASON why we are always searching for something should be what we look for, not the thing itself.
