Great Northern Story lyrics

Tell you a secret, tell you a story
About someone inside, I sit around
Get you some glory
And don't forget to tack on a lie

And all those things
You tried to make you feel alive
And if you can't tell
Why those things make you blind
That may be why the sun sets high

What do you want?
What do you need?
What do you get?
What do you see?

Tell me a secret, tell me a story
How about one, you can't hide behind
Pass it around, get me some glory
I won't forget to tack on a lie

And is it all those things that
We won't ever say
And is it all those things
We won't ever be

And is it all those things
We would pay not to see

What do you want?

What do you need?
What do you get?
What do you see?

It's all the same with different words
A simple name you knew you were
The story goes I'm hiding, you're hiding
I'm hiding away

I should have left it all alone
I should have left it all alone

What do you want?
What do you need?
I should have left it all alone

What do you get?
What do you see?
I should have left it all alone

What do you want?
What do you see?
I should have left it all alone

What do you get?
What do you need?
I should have left it all alone
