Song Lyrics

"What I Want"

by Ben Oakey
Album: Cloud Will Break

i want to do what is right
but theres a battle in my mind
i find i do what i don't want to
even things that i hate
and it seems that i've looked everywhere
frustrated, i don't understand
but, what can i do when
i don't want to do what i want
even when i want to

sometimes it gets so confusing
whats worse is that i feel im losing
oh! save me from this want
i know that it's not right

why do we do the stupid things
that we do' when we know perfectly well
what is right for ourselves
yet we try to justify
we believe in our own lies
Father, please take all of me
every part, Lord, i give it Thee
not my will, but Yours be done
el shadai, come
