[Verse 1] Every inch of sky's got a star And every inch of skin's got a scar I guess that you've got everything now And every inch of space in your head Is filled up with the things that you read I guess that you've got everything now And every film that you've ever seen Fills the spaces up in your dreams That reminds me (Everything now! Everything now!) [Verse 2] Every inch of road's got a sign And every boy uses the same line I pledge allegiance to everything now And every song that I've ever heard Is playing at the same time, it's absurd And it reminds me, we've got everything now We turn the speakers up 'til they break 'Cause every time you smile, it's a fake Stop pretending, you've got [Chorus] (Everything now!) I need it (Everything now!) I want it (Everything now!) I can't live without (Everything now!) I can't live without (Everything now! Everything now!) Everything now [Verse 3] Every inch of road's got a town Daddy, how come you're never around? I miss you, like everything now Mama, leave the food on the stove Leave your car in the middle of the road This happy family with everything now We turn the speakers up 'til they break 'Cause every time you smile, it's a fake Stop pretending, you've got [Chorus] (Everything now!) I need it (Everything now!) I want it (Everything now!) I can't live without (Everything now!) I can't live without (Everything now! Everything now!) [Post-Chorus] 'Til every room in my house Is filled with shit I couldn't live without [Chorus] (Everything now!) I need it (Everything now!) I can't live without (Everything now! Everything now!) Everything now [Bridge] La, la, la, la, la, la-la-la La, la, la, la, la-la-la La, la, la, la, la-la La, la, la, la, la, la-la-la La, la, la, la, la-la-la La, la, la, la, la-la Stop pretending, you've got [Chorus] (Everything now!) I need it (Everything now!) I want it (Everything now!) I can't live without (Everything now!) I can't live without (Everything now!) I can't live (Everything now!) [Post-Chorus] And every room in my house Is filled with shit I couldn't live without [Chorus] (Everything now!) I need it (Everything now!) I can't live without (Everything now!) I can't live (Everything now!) Every inch of space in my heart Is filled with something I'll never start [Outro] The ashes of everything now And then you're black again Can't make it back again From everything now
