Chorus:
I (3x's)
Need
Your
Love
I need your love
I need your love more anything else right now
Verse1:
Don't be upset with me
Don't hold it against me
My heart is crying
Out for strength cause it's weak
I've done so much in the past
Karma come back really fast
How long is this gonna last
The world just hate my ass
No one to run to when you sink
Hurt is all over me
I need you cause I'm weak
Don't judge me when you speak
I wonder what's my next task
My life should be a blast
Nothing it's more I gotta have
I'm desperate for prayer
Chorus:
I (3x's)
Need
Your
Love
I need your love
I need your love more anything else right now
Verse2:
All hurt inside of me
Running down from my head to my feet
This pain no one can see
Loved ones don't listen and flee
I have a question to ask
Life seems it's moving to fast
I don't want to end up in last
Can I ever let go of my past
People come to criticize me
I need a new authority
Locked down come set me body free
First wish if I was granted three
They say first you end up in last
My life should be a blast
The world just hate my ass
How long is this gonna last
Chorus:
I (3x's)
Need
Your
Love
I need your love
I need your love more anything else right now
Give me some give me some give me some... I need your
love (16X's)

[Hook: Cam]
I'm so desperate, I can't believe I've sinned against you
Create in me a clean heart (I'm so sorry)
Your mercy is what I need
[Verse 1: Lecrae]
Woke up this morning too depressed and shamed to leave my bed
Can't stand to see my own reflection so I hang my head
Feel like a disappointment like the scum of the earth
I'm so hurt I know you see I can't cover my dirt
My souls dying hearts weak and I can't even cry
I'm sposed to run to you but WHY I'm such an evil guy
The sun's shining but for me it's the darkest of days
Try to pretend it never happened but the guilt remains
I leave the house it feels like everybody knows I did it
Feels like they reading my mind and know the sin I committed
Through your blood I'm aquitted but my heart doesnt get it
Oh God I'm desperate for Help cause I'm grieving your Spirit
I couldn't sing in the sunday service, Lord I felt fake
And when they started communion I just made an escape
I'm in need of your grace
Feels like you hid your face
Lead me back to cross and show me my sins erased
[Verse 2: Lecrae]
I'm waste deep in my pity
Is Satan tryna trick me and tell me you won't forgive me
Cause it's startin to get me
Jesus help me quickly I hate wrong I've done
I know we all fall but I feel like the only one
Feels like I should be shunned
Should I punish myself
I know it's dumb cause by your death all my sin has been dealt
But my sin is been felt
I didn't want to do it
But what I want to do I don't
I swear I'm gonna to lose it
Try to open my bible I need to read your pages
I need you Lord but my guilt has got me feeling so faithless
Help me see where your face is
Take me back to the basics
Help me find my joy in you and not people and places
My sin is ever before me I turned my back on you
Oh father break and restore me to bring me back to you
[Verse 3: Lecrae]
Have mercy on me God according to your steady love
Wipe away my transgression and wash me in your blood
Create in me a clean heart renew a right spirit
Don't take your Spirit away your Presence keep me near it
I'm waiting patience on you Lord I know you hear my cry
Restore your Joy in me
For you alone I live and die
It's you I Glorify cause you don't want my sacrifice
You want me broken and contrite trusting in the Christ
I confess to you my sin and you show me mercy
I turn away from it demonstrating that you are worthy
Over lust, over pride, over all sin
Is my affection for Jesus is who died for all them
I was lost now I'm found I was toss to the ground
My sin weighed on me heavy but I am no longer bound
As sure as Christ wears the crown
I know that grace will abound
Desperate, desperate
You're reaching out
And no one hears you cry
You're freaking out again
'Cause all your fears
Remind you another dream has come undone
You feel so small and lost like you're the only one
You wanna scream 'cause you're
Desperate
You want somebody, just anybody
To lay their hands on your soul tonight
You want a reason to keep believin'
That someday you're gonna see the light
You're in the dark
There's no one left to call
And sleep's your only friend
but even sleep
Can't hide you from all those tears
And all the pain and all the days
You wasted pushin' them away
It's your life, it's time you face it
You want somebody, just anybody
To lay their hands to your soul tonight
You want a reason to keep believin'
That someday you're gonna see the light
'Cause you're desperate; desperate
'Cause you're desperate; and now
You know that things have gotta change
You can't go back you'll find your way
And day by day
You start to come alive
You want somebody, just anybody
To bring some peace on your soul tonight
You want a reason to keep believin'
That someday you're gonna see the light
You want somebody, just anybody
To lay their hands on your soul tonight
You want a reason to keep believin'
That someday you're gonna see the light
'Cause you're desperate, desperate
'Cause you're desperate, tonight
Oh desperate, so desperate
Tonight, tonight
Send me away
I'm here on my own
Hammer, stutter now
Lets rock, lets roll now
She says I'm obsessed
I say I'm in love
Oh, Me
You've done it now
Now send me a way out
I feel insecure
And Desperate
But not right now
I feel it now
And you don't see
The way I see
I've got it now
I'm desperate
Desperate
Desperate
I'm better off like this
I'm better off
I'm better off like this
Don't you know I care
No, no
Desperate
Desperate
Desperate
Desperate
I'm better off like this
I'm better off
I'm better off like this
Don't you know I care
No, no
I wish I was myself
Again
I wish I was myself
I'll do anything
Anything at all
Just throw a little cash
In my direction
I'll sing anything
From rock to music hall
Just for a morsel of
Your attention
Maybe as a child
I wasn't given
All the love I needed
Maybe I'm a sad
Reflection of today
I'm desperate
I'm desperate
I'm desperate
Desperate for love
Any kind of love
Or attention
Don't have to tempt me
You won't see me resisting
See me in a magazine
Or I'm not existing
I'll parody myself
Just don't leave me on the shelf
Maybe I'm a symptom
Of a bigger problem
I'm desperate
I'm desperate
I'm desperate
Desperate for love
Any kind of love
Or attention
I'm always available
Without hesitation
Opening an envelope?
Just send an invitation
I'll dance for you
Pose for you
Take off all my clothes for you
Speak your words
Sing your song
I'm up for auction
Going gone!
I'm desperate
I'm desperate
I'm desperate
I'm desperate
I'm desperate
I'm desperate
Desperate for love
Any kind of love
Or attention
Any kind of love
Or attention
Any kind of love
Or attention

Seek and you will find, they say
but I've been looking everyday
for a way past this wall that's in front of my face.
I'm on hands and knees searching for my faith.
I know there's so much at stake
but I don't know if I can take one more pat on the back saying I'll be okay.
Can't you see me whole life is in disarray?
You've got me desperate.
I know You hear me,
Would You give me a sign?
Reel me in before I've fallen in line.
You've put me on a path I don't understand
I'm standing on a ledge waving my hands.
You've got me desperate (do You see me?)
Desperate (do You hear me?)
Desperate (will You help me?)
You've got me desperate.
I know You're my only hope
The only One who truly knows how it feels, what it's like when it all starts to fall
You're the One I can trust who hears when I call.
You've got me desperate.
I know You hear me,
Would You give me a sign?
Reel me in before I've fallen in line.
You've put me on a path I don't understand
I'm standing on a ledge waving my hands.
You've got me desperate (do You see me?)
Desperate (do You hear me?)
Desperate (will You help me?)
You've got me desperate.
Some things I'll never figure out
Until I let hope erase my doubt.
You've got me desperate.
I know You hear me,
Would You give me a sign?
Reel me in before I've fallen in line.
You've put me on a path I don't understand,
I'm standing on a ledge waving my hands.
You've got me desperate (do You see me?)
Desperate (do You hear me?)
Desperate (will You help me?)
You've got me desperate.
You've got me desperate. (Oh do You see me?)
Desperate (do You hear me?)
Desperate (will You help me?)
There you go, walking away like you did before
But I know, I know you'll be back, back for more
And the game, the game will go on as it was
Nothing's changed, we'll know when we're closer to love
Aren't we desperate, aren't we afraid
We're just two lost and lonely people, scared to be alone again
Aren't we desperate, aren't we afraid
Can't you see that there are no victims, just volunteers
We won't change, we won't change until we face our fears
We're alone, even though we are together right now
Love remains, just out of reach somehow
Aren't we desperate, aren't we afraid
We're just two lost and lonely people, scared to be alone again
Aren't we desperate
I know we can make it, take up that look into my eyes
We'll take the future for you and I, yeah!
(Solo)
Are we so desperate, oh are we afraid
We're just two lost and lonely people, scared to be alone again
Are we so desperate, aren't we afraid
Desperate
Verse 1:
I love it when you're desperate
I love it when you can't compete

You never make sense to me
Chorus:
So why do we compete for social gain?
Hey should I repeat myself again?
Why do we compete for social gain?
Hey should I repeat myself again?
Love
Verse 2:
I love it when you're breathless
I love it when you can't sit still
I love it when you're breathless yeah yeah
I hate it when you pop those pills
Chorus:
So why do we compete for social gain?
Hey should I repeat myself again?
Why do we compete for social gain?
Hey should I repeat myself again?

You and I both know this will rot in my face

Love
Post Chorus:
You and I both know this will rot in my face
You and I both know this will rot in my face
Well this will not end, this will not end well
Well this will not end, this will not enough
What the hell is wrong with me?
I'm in a band, ladies can't you see
Please don't judge me by the car that I drive
Or the fact that I haven't had a date since '95
Come on, don't go away
Don't listen to your friends when they that I am gay
I try so hard but I just can't get no play
Don't have any STDs
Come on, I'm begging on my knees
Come on get close just ignore the fleas
We will take anything that walks . . .
Because we're desperate
I know I'm not a handsome man
Cuz I look like an ogre with a farmer's tan
And every time the ladies see me and I'm walking their way
They say, "Brian smells, everybody stay away"
Oh ladies, can't you see
I can't help it because I'm ugly
But I'm in a band, don't that count for something
Come on now, don't delay
Cuz if you don't call then I'll probably rent-a-date
And my tab keeps rising, cuz I do it every day
Oh ladies, can't you see
I'm in a band, why aren't you attracted to me?
I don't care if you're underage
Just as long as you'll be seen with me in a public place
What's it gonna take? (What's it gonna take?)
For you help me bake cookies?
Doo-Wah-Doo
Cuz I need to know
I'm all hot and ready
And I got to go . . .
Because we're Desperate
Why oh why must I have this rash
No girls talk to me they just step back
Should I lift weights? Would that make me more sexual?
Maybe wear glasses would that make me intellectual?
Come on lets do it fast
Cuz I'm all hot and ready and it just wont last
And I got 20 dollars what can I get for that?
Don't go, I'm a gomesick child
Just stay and talk to me
Even if it's just for a while
Oh, I'm afraid of the dark
But You are the light
Stay by my side
Lord, without You ...
I get a little desperate
Reaching our for Your love
I get a little desperate
To feel Your touch from above
I get desperate
Far away just won't do
I'm hopelessly, honestly, constantly
Desperate for You
Oh, Lord, when You hung on that tree
You showed once and for all
That You were desperate for me
And I know You'll ve coming back soon
I hope time will fly, I'll survive
But in the meantime ...
I get a little desperate
Reaching our for Your love
I get a little desperate
To feel Your touch from above
I get desperate
Far away just won't do
I'm hopelessly, honestly, constantly
Desperate for You
Don't know what I did before You
Never really lived before You
And I want You to know that ...
I get a little desperate
Reaching our for Your love
I get a little desperate
To feel Your touch from above
I get desperate
Far away just won't do
I'm hopelessly, honestly, constantly
Desperate for You
I need You more in my life
I am hopelessly, honesly, constantly
I can't remember what I said
I'm tired of sleeping on the floor
I guess I didn't have a reason
I never needed one before.
I can't stand the thought of another night alone
How come everyone is taken.
Desperate, Desperate for a date
I'm desperate again.
Desperate, Desperate for a date
I'm desperate again.
It seems I always say the wrong things
Then you slap me in the face
There's nothing here that seems to want me
And I can't seem to find my place.
Crying out kept me sane
Now it's such a crying shame
Mirrors that reflect my past
Showing what would never last
Knowing where I was before
I can see the shutting doors
Closing to unfailing love
But I can't seem to get enough
I desperately want you
I desperately need you
I need a love that stands true
I desperately want you
Living in a world of hurt
Hurting everything that's worth
Loving til the day I die
Sometime I don't even try
Acting like it's all ok
Knowing that I'm in the way
Seeing where I need to be
But I need you to carry me
I desperately want you
I desperately need you
I need a love that stands true
I desperately want you
You know my name
You know my pain
And I need you
And I need you
And I need you
I desperately want you
I desperately need you
I need a love that stands true
it took a long time, but I'm still not over it
so many things in this life, I'm just starting to understand
I look in the mirror, and I am talking back to you
and I know you have to get better, for me to do it too
no one will ever love me that way again
I swear I'll never be that desperate not again
do you remember, the last night we were together
what you said, when you took my head and you held it on
the floor, maybe you were wasted, maybe I let you forget
because I couldn't believe what you were doing to me
and I still don't believe it now...
I'm terrified of love, but I'm more scared of being left alone,
and I know...
no one will ever love me that way again
I swear I'll never be that desperate not again
don't treat the one you love like a criminal
and don't look for me, cause I'll be gone....
I had to find out, I have to do it all by myself
cause the one I want to help me can't even get up,
so get out, let me go now!!
no one will ever love me that way again
I swear I'll never be not that desperate again
no one will ever touch me that way again
I swear I'll never be not that desperate
no one, no one will love me, not like I know you did
but I swear I'll never be that desperate not again
how would you show me you're that one
one is the loneliest number and you know I'd love to love you
but I ain't the one you'll come home to or run to
I'll be on the road, gone before you know
all around the world, back again
baby you understand, cause this is our time
hold me love, hold me tight...
one, but so much more
one, cause I've been waiting so long for
one who'll bring out that heavy heart in me
one cause I am alone
could you be, could you be the one, the one for me
Here we sit
In this smokey bar
Two souls drifting
Thru the world alone
Here we talk
About life and love
Hold me tonight
We'll be lovers
And we'll dance
As our drinks go down
Casting the stale truth
With each breath
Then we'll touch
As the lights go out
Want me tonight?
I'm your lover
Baby I'm desperate
I'm burning fire for you
When the rain comes falling down
And you're lonely as the night gows colder
Don't worry 'cuz I'll be there for you
When your dreams seem far away
Take a moment to look over your shoulder
'Cuz honey you know I'm desperate too
Everybody's desperate just like you!
Here we are
Like the times before
Reaching out at midnight
For the only open arms
And we kiss
In our Shangri-la
We steal the night
Just like lovers
Baby I'm desperate
I'm burning fire for you
When the rain comes falling down
And you're lonely as the night grows colder
Don't worry 'cuz I'll be there for you
When your dreams seem far away
Take a moment to look over your shoulder
'Cuz honey you know I'm desperate too
Baby I'm desperate just like you!
And baby I'm desperate
I'm burning fire for you
And I know you're desperate
But I'm right beside you!
When the rain comes falling down
And you're lonely as the night grows colder
Don't worry 'cuz I'll be there for you
When your dreams seem far away
Take a moment to look over your shoulder
'Cuz baby you know I'm desperate too
Everybody's desperate just like you!
Everybody's desperate just like you!
When the rain comes falling down
And you're lonely as the night grows colder
When your dreams seem far away
Take a moment to look over your shoulder
When the rain comes falling down
And you're lonely as the night grows colder
When your dreams seem far away
I close my eyes and fall on the ground
I take my head into my hands
Tears are flowing, I am torn appart
Everything I have built is in ruin.
My mind cracks in several parts
Everything is dead in me, man cut the light off
I would like some help but no one is here
What I feel is too strong for me.
Darkness is submerging all my mind
My throat makes some growls of every kind
This suffering is too strong for me
I need to escape it at all cost!
AAAHHH! I never thought that man could suffer so much...
Tears are not enough to end my pain
Somtimes I think that I'm going insane
Visions of the past are burning my brain
So little water can't stop so big flames!
AAAHHH! I feel so last
God, why don't You exist?
I must stop this suffering!
I must find an exit!
I can't live with so much pain
I think that I see some light there.
If life means suffering
darling you know i love you
and you know my love for you is true
but you treated me so wrong
i cannot deal with this situation coming along
i still love you
that's honest, i do
don't, oh baby don't you leave me
don't you leave me now this will be my end
you treated me so wrong
i cannot deal with this situation coming along
i still love you
that's honest, i do
and now i'm singing this desperate song for you
but you treated me so wrong
i cannot deal with this situation coming along
i still love you
that's honest, i do
but when i think back the story from the very start
i had a lot to give and i gave from my heart
i thought it was love but you just played an evil card
when i think back the story from the very start
You see the shadows standing by your door
and as it inches open you say
I can't take it anymore
it's all too often
they take it out of you
why can't the love the way you love
why can't your dreams come true
and I see the pain running from your eyes
it tells me that you're desperate to find a love that can melt your cold heart inside
heal your hurt and ease your mind
look in the mirror
at your battered face again
it brings a tear to your eyes as you turn and see headlights in the driveway
he's coming home again
why can't he love the way you love
so hard to understand
you've traveled far from the place you once called home
now this time you feel so alone
this love will find you, the one you're searching for
and if you can love with this love
I want to see you move in power
To see your kingdom come
I want to see your love poured out
Let your will be done
I want the world to see
Your beauty let heaven come to earth
Awaken hearts, open up their eyes
Let 'em know that You're alive
I can feel it burning now
My heart is crying out
I'm desperate
For ever word You say
To know you more than I could ever imagine
I want to see you move in power
To see your kingdom come
I want to see your love poured out
Let your will be done
I want the world to see your beauty
Let heaven come to earth
Awaken hearts, open up their eyes
Let 'em know that You're alive
I can feel it stirring now
I can feel it burning now
My heart is crying out
I'm desperate
For ever word you say
To know you more then I could ever imagine
I'm over this
I'm tired of my old ways
I'm chasing after you
Reveal yourself to me
Reveal yourself to me Lord
'Cause I need You
I'm desperate
For every word you say
To know you more than I could ever imagine
I'm over this
I'm tired of my old ways
I'm chasing after you
Reveal yourself to me
I'm desperate
For everyword you say
I am so desperate for You...
I've waited so long, reach out for me
Won't You please let me find the Son of Serenity
I'll give You all my love
Follow You all the way
The midnight hour calls the morning star
I am so desperate for You
Looking for who You really are
I am so desperate for You
Wanna hear Your voice call my name
To feel Your presence like the falling rain
I'll give You all my love
Follow You all the way
Let Your light shine in me
I am so desperate for You
I need Your love so let it be
I am so desperate for You
I am a wandering man, it's been too long
Lost in this mixed up world, just wanna find my way home
I'll do what it takes, tired of living my way
Erase these emotions, tired of being afraid
The calling is here, do you believe
I need you
Near me now
I never knew
Just how...
You're a part of me in all I am...
Never been more in the dark
Never been this scared
Never was so uncertain of what to do or speak
Never been so alone...
Never been without you...
Never had more than I could keep
And what I need now
Is someone like you.
Can't believe I didn't look u up
Even before I knew
How u have waited for me
I know now
And I...
I'm desperate I'm calling out ur name(can u hear me)
I'm faling I can't feel ur flame, it's so cold and I...
I wanna go home
Wanna feel ur arms around me(can u hear me... save me...)
So afraid
With who I am
I need your strength
To live again
I put my hand in Yours,
You fill me up. (fill me up)
I know You'll always be there,
You were once the picture
Of perfect cool
With a calculated smile
But you played the world
For one big fool
Now you're losing all your style
Cracking your whip, but no one hears you
Tighten your grip, but no one fears you
Shot down, and you lost your power
How will you face, the desperate hour
You're desperate
I think you waited
Just a bit too long
It didn't happen like you planned
Now your rationale
Is all but gone
How did it get so out of hand
Cracking your whip, but no one hears you
Tighten your grip, but no one fears you
Shot down, and you lost your power
How will you face, the desperate hour
Loading your gun, you're filled with passion
Turning to run, just ain't your fashion
Blown out, by the circumstances
Never mind that you'll take your chances
