Jenny Lewis - Essence of Life

It's not that far away
From LA to the Bay
But I may as well be living on the moon
When I heard you say
You're not feeling it in that way
It reinforced what I already knew

The essence of life
Is suffering
Lean into the light
But sparkle blue

We have the essence of life
At our fingertips
When you say, "It ain't right"
It burns when you leave
And it makes me wanna scream

I want you back
Hallelu
I want you back
Now that I can't have you

I'll be okay
Chilling with Yin and Yang
One brother's green, one brother's blue
But neither are you

The essence of life
Is ecstasy
Lean into the light
But sometimes you've got to scream

I want you back
Hallelu
I want you back
Now that I can't have you
I want you back
Hallelu
I want you back
Hallelu

I want you back (I want you, hallelu)
I said, I want you back (I want you, hallelu)
I want you back (I want you, hallelu)
I want you back (hallelu)
I want you back

Lean into the light
But sparkle blue
