Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What you want
I ain't got it
What you want
What you want
I ain't got it
What you want
I ain't got it
[Verse 2]
I don't know why I got a tendency to run away
Don't know why I'm always pushing for a sweet escape
Even though I feel so close
I just can't control how I
Feel
And I gotta be free
Need to breathe
But sometimes I need
[Verse 3]
All night, all day
We could fall in love in new shapes, new shapes
When the morning comes, I'm sorry I stayed
Tell you honestly, I can't change
Can't change
[Verse 4]
What you want
I ain't got it
What you want
What you want
I ain't got it
I ain't got it
[Verse 5]
What if I
Created places for you to let go?
What if you
Wanted to watch because we both know?
That now we are so close we don't have to fight how we feel
When the lights and the skins are a call so surrender to it
[Verse 6]
All night, all day
Then we fall in love in new shapes, new shapes
When the morning comes all misty, we fade
'Cause we fell in love in new shapes
In new shapes, oh
[Verse 7]
What you want
I ain't got it
What you want
What you want
I ain't got it
I ain't got it
[Verse 8]
Thinking of me but you're stuck on the west side again
Maybe we're meant for another dimension, babe
Deep in the dark of your brain like a star in space
You call it art but you pulled out my heart
And you twisted it into a new shape
[Verse 9]
Yeah, I'm dive bombing again and again
Trying to get up close to you
Fucked if I know how it's gonna end
But honestly life would be better
If I never met you in the first place
[Verse 10]
What you want
I ain't got it (Yeah)
What you want (I ain't got it)
What you want
I ain't got it (Charli, Caroline, Chris)
What you want (What you want, what you want)
I ain't got it (What you want)
What you want
I ain't got it
What you want
What you want (Yeah)
I ain't got it (I ain't got it, baby)
I ain't got it
