You know what i want

Letra

[Intro – Female, whispered] (You know what I want...) [Verse 1 – Male, intimate, clear] Rain on the window, she's scrolling alone Glow on her face from the light of her phone Every night, same street, same shadow, same chill She says it's nothing, but she's looking out still Long black coat, and a mask on my face I learned every road, every lock in this place I never once touched her, I just kept her safe She don't know I'm the reason the dark keeps its space [Pre-Chorus – Male] She feels me in the hallway, she hears me in the hall She's scared of what I am, but she's waiting for the call [Chorus – Duet, call and response] (What do you want?) You know what I want (What do you want?) Been yours from the start She should be running, but she's frozen in place Afraid of the mask, but she wants to see my face (Please, don't) Shh, just breathe, I won't break what I adore I'm the danger at the window, and the lock upon your door [Verse 2 – Male, sparse] Three-seventeen, and the house holds its breath She turns on the couch, and I'm there at her left Hand to her cheek, soft as a vow Thought I came to take her, but I'm shaking now (Please, don't) So I stop, and I stand in her sight Been watching from the dark, now I'm stepping in the light [Pre-Chorus – Male] She feels me in the hallway, she hears me in the hall She's scared of what I am, but she's waiting for the call [Chorus – Duet, call and response] (What do you want?) You know what I want (What do you want?) Been yours from the start She should be running, but she's frozen in place Afraid of the mask, but she wants to see my face (Please, don't) Shh, just breathe, I won't break what I adore I'm the danger at the window, and the lock upon your door [Bridge – Spoken word, male, no singing, piano only] (spoken) I love you. (spoken) Never said it out loud. (spoken) Every step I followed, I was scared to be found. (spoken) The mask comes off. Now you see what I'm made of. (spoken) The thing you feared the most... was just a man in love. [Final Chorus – Female lead, powerful] What do you want? (You know what I want) Now I'm asking it soft (You know what I want) And the lights go off I could've run, but I'm reaching for you Not afraid of the mask, I'm the one holding the key Okay... just trust me Danger at the window, now I'm letting you inside [Outro – Whispered, both voices, rain fades] (whispered) You know what I want... (whispered) You always knew... [End]
