"What I Want" lyrics
"What I Want"
I don't even need one hand to count my real friends
It's getting kinda lonely out here
I guess that I wished that by twenty-six
The picture would be a bit more clear
I had a five-year plan, working under the man
Remind me why I left to follow
A dream that might make me lose my mind
'Cause I don't know where I'll be tomorrow
I'm tryna trust the plan
What plan?
Oh yeah, I don't even know
I'm tryna understand
What I want
And what I don't 'cause
I wanna be known but don't wanna know fame
I wanna be held but I don't wanna be saved
I wanna feel love without any of the pain
I wanna hate him but don't wanna stay mad
I wanna slow down but I don't wanna step back
I wanna feel good without any of the bad
That's what I want
I want that
I tried self-help but didn't end well
I thought it might make me stronger
But I still don't know when it's time to let go
Or try just a little bit harder
You say live in the moment but keep on growing
I find it a little confusing
Enjoy where you are but not for too long
'Cause you gotta still keep on moving
I'm tryna trust the plan
What plan?
I don't even know
I'm tryna understand
What I want
And what I don't 'cause
I wanna be known but don't wanna know fame
I wanna be held but I don't wanna be saved
I wanna feel love without any of the pain
I wanna hate him but don't wanna stay mad
I wanna slow down but I don't wanna step back
I wanna feel good without any of the bad
That's what I want
I want that
That's what I want, that's what I want, that's what I want
(I want that)
That's what I want, that's what I want, that's what I want
I wanna be cool but I've never known chill
I wanna be fine without any of the pills
I wanna feel only the things that I wanna feel
Do you feel?
I wanna hate him but don't wanna stay mad
I wanna slow down but I don't wanna step back
I wanna feel good without any of the bad
That's what I want
I want that
That's what I want, that's what I want, that's what I want
(I want that)
That's what I want, that's what I want, that's what I want
I want that

Mimi Webb - "I'll Break My Heart Again" You only know what you lost when you try and replace it
Trying to find a quick fix 'cause you can't take the pain in
And every time I close my eyes to kiss him
Every time I feel his hands on my skin...
Rachel Grae - "Outsider" I'm there when anyone needs me
Just picking up broken pieces
When you're shattered on the floor and you're bleeding
I'll stay around, I'm not leaving
Somehow I still don't belong
I feel stupid when...
Lacy Cavalier - "Cheating On U" You told me people could only fall in love once
Then you told me you loved me after two months
So I just assumed I was the one
Jealousy was never something I believed in
'Til you let random girls in...
JESSIA - "One Before The One" Would've been really cool to love you
If you'd given me the chance
Instead you strayed me along for 6 whole months
Like I'm some kind of experiment
Would be you really good to know you know
What's...
Andrea Russett - "Darkest Hour" Where do I run if I can't hide?
Said I'm okay, but I won't lie
I'm lost on you, I'm losing
How do I know that you won't leave?
Doubt in my mind, bruises on me
Just know that I'm still healing
And...
