Relient K - "(If You Want It)"

Relient K's "(If You Want It)," off their album "Forget and Not Slow Down." NOTE: This song is a continuation of "This Is The End," which you can listen to here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1Tj6_5rTCc

LYRICS: (there might be a few mistakes):

I can't keep a straight face and say this is not the end
Not if you want it it's upon us and I wanna say it's sinking in
If I was hasty maybe I was rushed along
I won't move into little boxes and then not get the itch to move on

So think real slow
Don't forget that yes is yes and no is no
Melting prints of grass and snow
Means I may forget the way to get back home
Cause this is the end if you want it
This is the end

You're not the first thing in my life I've loved and lost
Yeah I've thought worse things that I might be less inclined to merely just shrug off

You'll take me home
Like my family did my father did I know
You'll think real slow
But don't forget the speed that I can go away
Cause this is the end if you want it
Yeah this is the end

I've been convincing myself that I'm worthwhile
Cause I'm worth what I'll convince myself to be

I met the devil and I stared her in the eyes
Her hair had scales like silver serpents
I a statue, stood there mesmerized

I took the fire escape and made it out alive
Yeah I still burn from time to time but I've a healing hand against my side

Blisters on my feet I crawled back home
Frozen from the sleet burned sand and stones
Nourished back to life by life alone
With one shake of the mane regain the throne

I love Relient K! I always have but especially now. they've taken on a new tone in some of their new songs. Its a slower, sweeter one that this song really shows off with its heavy use of piano and delicate background strings, while its counterpart "this is the end" shows the colors we all know from relient k's earlier stuff. Geat stuff. love them

"I'm worth what I'll convince myself to be."

Has anybody found a MIDI for this?

Beautiful song! so mysterious and touching. It shocks me how the stupid disgusting brainless song LMFAO - "rock party anthem" has 320 million views and this sooo little! IF good music were appreciated then this would have 500million views lol.

I love how everyone who commented on this song seems to be affected by the lyrics as much as I am.

[JazzHands556]

I haven't been keeping track, but I would say that this is one of the very few persons who is on par with Ben Gibbared, as far as depth and lyrics go.
