What Do You Want
Emily Vaughn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Guess you got a few confessions
But I won't hear it
Yeah I'm not gonna hear it
And yes we all make some mistakes, but that
Doesn't make this all okay
And I don't wanna hear it
Yeah I don't wanna hear it
What do you want from me?
What do you want from me? I gave everything
What do you want from me?
What do you want from me?
I think it's time you let this go
What do you want from me?
What do you want from me? I gave everything
And if I gave you all I had
Then what do you want from me?
Then what do you want from me?
Thirty calls in a week doesn't justify
What you've done all this time
So I don't wanna hear it
Yeah I don't wanna hear it
Maybe you should let it go
Cause I've already let you go
What do you want from me?
What do you want from me? I gave everything
What do you want from me?
What do you want from me?
I think it's time you let this go
What do you want from me?
What do you want from me? I gave everything
And if I gave you all I had
Then what do you want from me?
Then what do you want from me?
Maybe you should let it go
Cause I've already let you go
What do you want from me?
What do you want from me?
What do you want from me? I gave everything
What do you want from me?
What do you want from me?
I think it's time you let this go
What do you want from me?
What do you want from me? I gave everything
And if I gave you all I had
Then what do you want from me?
What do you want? What do you want?
Then what do you want from me?
What do you want? What do you want?
What do you want? What do you want?
Maybe you should let it go
Cause I've already let you go

Never asked any questions and now
I never questioned you before, but now...
Guess you got a few confessions
I suppose you have some things to confess
But I won't hear it
But I refuse to listen to what you have to say
Yeah I'm not gonna hear it
Yes, I absolutely will not listen
And yes we all make some mistakes, but that
And while it's true that we all make mistakes, that
Doesn't make this all okay
Doesn't excuse what you've done
And I don't wanna hear it
And I don't want to hear your excuses
Yeah I don't wanna hear it

I believe it's time for you to move on from this

Perhaps you should just move on
Cause I've already let you go
Because I've already moved on from you
What do you want?
What is it that you desire?
What do you want?
What is it that you expect?
Then what do you want from me?
So, what more do you want from me?
Maybe you should let it go
Perhaps you should just move on
Cause I've already let you go
Because I've already moved on from you
