I want...
I want you to trust me
I want you to believe me
I want to feel your eyes
I want to control every heartbeat
I want to hear your voices
I want to disturb the peace
I want you to see me well
I want you to understand me
I want your fantasy
I want your energy
I want to see your hands
I want to go down in applause
Do you see me?
Do you understand me?
Do you feel me?
Do you hear me?
Can you hear me?
We hear you
Can you see me?
We see you
Can you feel me?
We feel you
I don't understand you
I want...
We want you to trust us
We want you to believe everything from us
We want to see your hands
We want to go down in applause - yeah
Can you hear me?

About I Want
"I Want" by Rammstein stands as a pivotal track from the band's 1997 debut album *Sehnsucht*, serving as a direct English-language counterpart to the German title track. Released during the group's formative years, the song encapsulates the band's signature industrial metal sound, blending heavy distortion with rhythmic precision and a distinct, brooding vocal style. It was one of the earliest attempts to translate their complex German lyrics into English, aiming to broaden their international appeal while maintaining the raw emotional intensity characteristic of their early work. The recording reflects the post-punk and industrial influences that defined the German Neue Deutsche Härte scene, establishing a sonic template that would define their subsequent career. As a key song in their discography, the track highlights the band's ability to merge aggressive instrumentation with themes of desire and vulnerability, making it a significant piece in their evolution from underground experimentalists to global rock icons.
