If I Ever Wanted Anything
I have a new single out!
"If I Ever Wanted Anything" is a post-punk power ballad with the same searing, queer femme energy that The Rapid Onset is known for. It's both gospel and grit, spiritual and spit,
You said knock
And it will be opened
You said seek
And I will find
You said ask
Ans it will be given
You said love
Heart, soul and mind
So I knock, And I seek
And I ask, And I love
With all my heart, And all my soul
And all my mind
But I’m still standing here
telling you Goodbye
Goodbye
I said I’d wait
(You said you’d wait)
‘til you brought us through it
(But you never did)
I said I’d fight
(You said you’d fight)
‘til war was over
(But it never ends)
I said I’d give
‘til I was empty
But I guess you always knew
That I’d be standing here one day
Telling you goodbye
Telling you Goodbye
It’s got everything to do with love (love)
It’s got everything to do with love (love)
I can’t live what I don’t want
I can’t give what I don’t have
It’s everything to do
With everything I am
Standing here telling you
It’s everything to do with love
Goodbye
You said knock
And the door will open
See k and I will find
And if I ever wanted anything
You said all I gotta do is
You said ask
It will be given
You said love
Heart, soul and mind
So I knock, And I seek
And I ask, And I love
With all my heart, And all my soul
And all my mind
But I’m still standing here
telling you Goodbye
Goodbye
I said I’d wait ‘til you brought us through it
fight ‘til war was over
Give ’til I was empty goodbye
I said I’d give and now I’m empty
Goodbyemore
