Lyrics How Many? - How to Dress Well

Don't think a hassle can't happen at this hour
What'll happen's gonna happen with the happiness and power
But I was livin' on a sacrifice
Never, never can I have myself a vision
You could've waited just to take my life
Send you a telephone call, waiting for your word

But how many little sins correct themselves?
How many lives gonna sit on sore beds still?
You want it, I did it, You warned him, I lived it
Never gonna change my ways

How many people did he kill?
How many lives were not that right?
How many warnings did he give?
How many sacrificed their lives?

How many people did he kill?
How many lives were not that right?
How many warnings did he give?
How many sacrificed their lives?

I said, I would've taken you the rest of time.
My God, My God, My God
And it was hard for me to fake it, but I couldn't've said why
And you could've waited, man I wasn't right (you could've waited, you could've waited)
How will loving you was never like?

How many people did he kill?
How many lives were not that right?
How many warnings did he give?
How many sacrificed their lives?

I said, I was waiting just to sacrifice
Never, never, never could I have myself a vision
Say that you would've hated for the rest of my life

But if you knew that it was happenin' then you coulda said why
Coulda said why, been happenin' since rest of this
Hard for a moment just to take two lives (how many lives, how many lives?)

How many people did he kill?
How many lives were not that right?
How many warnings did he give?
How many sacrificed their lives?

How many people did he kill?
How many lives were not that right?
How many warnings did he give?
How many sacrificed their lives?

I was waiting for the rest of time
You were waiting for a greater sign than the waste they call their lives
