Lyrics

Anything that you want

Desire for anything the listener wants.

Anything that you need

Desire for anything the listener needs.

Anything that you haven't gotten yet

Desire for anything not yet obtained that is wanted from the speaker.

That you want from me

Expressing the speaker's willingness to provide what is wanted.


Everything that you are

Acknowledging the entirety of the listener, both positive and negative aspects.

And everything that you thought you wanted

Referring to the listener's desires and wants.

Everything that you're not supposed to want

Highlighting desires that may go against societal norms or expectations.

You want from me

Reiteration of the listener's desires from the speaker.


You don't need to understand

Encouraging the listener not to comprehend but to submit to the music.

Just give in to the band

Advocating for surrendering to the music.

When it's slipping through my hands

Addressing the fleeting nature of the experience.


And it's more than i can take

Describing an overwhelming situation beyond the speaker's capacity.

It's just about to break

Indicating an imminent breaking point.

All these feelings that we fake

Acknowledging insincerity in emotions.

Goodbye

Conveying a farewell or ending.


Everyone that you know

Referring to people in the listener's life.

Everywhere that you go - you see them

Observing the ubiquity of those known to the listener.

Every feeling that you try to hide inside begins to show

Noting the revelation of concealed emotions.


You don't need to understand

Reiteration of not needing understanding but embracing the music.

Just give in to the band

Encouraging submission to the musical experience.

When it's slipping through my hands

Repeating the idea of the experience slipping away.


And it's more than i can take

Expressing an overwhelming sensation.

It's just about to break

Signaling an imminent breaking point.

And these feelings that we fake

Acknowledging insincerity in emotions.

On this roller coaster ride

Describing a tumultuous journey with an impending collision.

It's going to collide

Anticipating a clash with concealed truths.

With those secrets that we hide

Highlighting hidden secrets.

Goodbye

Reiteration of farewell or ending.


And it's more than i can take

Reiterating the overwhelming nature of the situation.

It's just about to break

Emphasizing the proximity to a breaking point.

All these feelings that we fake

Acknowledging insincerity in emotions.


On this roller coaster ride

Repetition of the turbulent journey and the anticipation of a collision.

It's going to collide

Reiterating the imminent clash with concealed truths.

With those secrets that we hide

Emphasizing the presence of hidden secrets.

Goodbye

Final confirmation of farewell or ending.
