lyrics

it's easy to hide, it's easy to pretend that it's not there
it's easy to ignore, deride, descend inside
of your mind to act like you don't care
but you do, yeah you do
and it's why you keep checking for some mixed messages
or some sign that it's come too far
for you to ignore

but you are what i want

you said he treats you like a friend
i think he looks for trouble
you said you won't go back again
but walk a tightrope and you're bound to tumble down
so low that you know there's only
one direction you could go
he'll change, yeah he swears it's true
he's always saying that he's thinking about you

but you are what i want

waiting for a phone call
pace around the bedroom
write down all the words that
i would never say, i'm ...

... to you are what i want

it's easy to hide, it's easy - you pull the shades down low
it's easy to make up an alibi
put on a fake disguise that they'll never recognize
it's been your MO
but get up and get out
because despite what they say, it don't work itself out
you'll change, yeah you swear that's true
but i'm the only one who's always thinking about you

and you are what i want
you are what i want
