What You Want

You're softer than a cannon blast

But your effects much longer last

And I want you just like a hole in my head

But I need you like a meal and a bed

And you say, "Come on, I'm not what you're after."

But I know you're not just anyone, anyone



(chorus)

But I'm not what you want

No, I'm not anyone

But if you needed me

Then I could be someone



And you're an army in a horse

And you have taken me by force

And all the freedom in this world could not resist

The sweet temptation of your sweet elusiveness

So I say "Come on!" as the gate swings open

Cause I know you're not just anyone, anyone



(bridge)

And the lie's always cheaper than the truth

But the lie's all I've ever known of you

Maybe none of this is true
