Give 'Em What They Want ft. Jake Wild Lyrics

Long drives, late nights

I think I'm going nowhere, but it feels right

I do what I can just to feel alive

Bus rides, state lines

Sleeping for two hours off a bad high

Milwaukee to Cincy just killing time

And I know I'm what they're here to see now

A thousand faces, this should be a dream

I fill this blank space with cameras and breakdowns

But projections aren't what they seem

So wasted, complacent

Don't think that I could fake this

Never fall in love, never break a heart, don't fuck it up

Don't push until they shove, just lock it up

And give 'em what they want

Just give 'em what they want

Waking up as another man

Reflecting on all the things I think I am

My euphoria is leaving me condemned

And I don't even like what I'm seeing now

My reflection's too clouded to see

I fill this blank space with cameras and breakdowns

But projections aren't what they seem

So wasted, complacent

Don't think that I could fake this

Never fall in love, never break a heart, don't fuck it up

Don't push until they shove, just lock it up

And give them what they want

Just give 'em what they want

I always knew that I would end up right where I am

But I was dead weight so I turn over the diazepam

Peripheral vision, I hope that you can understand

That if I give a side eye, I'm just keeping my sleight of hand

The limelight tastes so sour and hurts my eyesight

The room has elephants, we truncate their freedom and right to life

Lay me down to sleep, I wanna dream in pastel scenes

I miss the mezzanine, but I chose the path, so you can leave me

So wasted, complacent

don't think that I could fake this

Never fall in love, never break a heart, don't fuck it up

Don't push until they shove, just lock it up

And give them what they want

Just give 'em what they want

Just give 'em what they want

Give 'em what they want

Give 'em what they want

Give 'em what they want

Give 'em what they want
