Shell of a Fighter by No-Man Lyrics

I dream of changes
I change my dreams
I feel so restless
Sometimes I get so mean

Why should I bother
Finding the will
When every movement I make
Just seems like I'm standing still?

(chorus:)
The shell of a fighter
The shell of a man
The weight of a lifetime -
Waiting for your healing hands

And still I rise
And still I dream
And still I feel
And I wait
(chorus 1 repeat)

(chorus 2:)
Why don't you hold me
When I need you to?
Why don't you touch me
When I reach for you?

(chorus 3:)
Why don't you hurt for me
Like I do for you?
Why don't you dream of me -
Dream like I'm dreaming of you?

(chorus 1 x2)
The shell of a fighter

And still I rise
And still I dream
And still I feel
And I wait

The shell of a fighter
