Energy lyrics - Collective Soul

I leave the cage wide open
I give no words of caution dear
So when you're done revolving
I only ask your presence here

In the morning when I slow
And the sun soon explodes
I need the world to be controlled
And in the evening when I leave
I need a reason to believe
In the next homecoming, yeah

I cleared the road wide open
So put your hand on the wheel and steer
Don't drain this conversation
To only fill it back with tears

In the morning when I slow
And the sun soon explodes
I need the world to be controlled
And in the evening when I leave
I need a reason to believe
In the next homecoming, yeah

In the morning when I slow
And the sun soon explodes
I need the world to be controlled
And in the evening when I leave
I need a reason to believe
In the next homecoming, yeah

Homecoming
Homecoming
Homecoming

Mother and child
I'm such a man for a short while
And promises be
The world just spins faster than me
(Come on, come on, come on)

And all of your friends, I hear are whispering
I think you left me for the government
And all of your friends, I hope are listening
I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy

In beauty or beast
(Beauty or beast)
Who's my character to be
I'm now covering
(I'm now covering)
All the makeup that makes me
(Come on, come on, come on)

And all of your friends are now whispering
I think you left me for the government
And all of your friends, I hope are listening
I wish you'd stop sucking all my energy

And all of your friends are still whispering
I think you left me for the government
And all of your friends, I hope are listening
I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy

You got it, you got it
Come on

And all of your friends are now whispering
I think you left me for the government
And all of your friends, I hope are listening
I wish you'd stop sucking all my energy

And all of your friends are still whispering
I think you left me for the government
And all of your friends, I hope are listening
I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy

(Energy, energy, energy, energy, oh)
I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy
(Energy, energy, energy, energy, oh)
I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy
