The Need Lyrics

Anything you need
I can't be anything you need

Now I walk alone I find a way

All of my prayers unanswered
All of my careless actions
Failures catastrophies
This is killing me
Somewhere in here

Kindly nail yourself
Upon your thoughts
You've never had enough
Pain to feel at all
It's coming up now

All of my prayers unanswered
All of my careless actions
Failures catastrophes
This is killing me
Somewhere in here

Fade the cross from my memory
What part of this is saving me
And what exactly is it saving me for?
I don't need to believe
Anymore

I looked back upon my life
I've found it hard to find
The right words that won't hurt
It brings me back to my knees

Nail yourself upon your thoughts

Close your eyes
If you want to be blind

I know I posted these lyrics, but, for the life of me, I can't figure out if Jeff is saying "I can't be anything you need" or "I can be anything you need."

Can anyone help out?

Thanks for posting lyrics man! To answer your question, I believe he is saying "I can't be anything you need". You can really hear it around 2:10 - 2:26 into the song.

I think this one is about God and religion too, they can't be anything God and religion says, and religion shows us a way of life but Nothing says"now I walk alone I find a way" they are basically saying that they religious ways are not for them and they should find their own way of life The last verse is so obvious but the chorus "all of my prayers unanswered, all of my careless actions" I don't know but it might be that they had just prayed and wasted their time or like praying was a careless action? Failures and catastrophies also might have been caused by religious people and them being so faithful to their God that they would kill people for it(Hitler killed Jews, holy wars, Muslims(Iran and Iraq war) terrorists like ISIS and Taliban, AlQaeeda)
