What Do You Want from Me
Emmi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I carve in stone all that you did
Nothing has escaped my eye

I know your crimes 'cause I memorise
And everything is tattooed in me

You can lay blame, and you can still say
Oh, you either live or you die, but you're mine

I guess I could
Fight, I guess I could lie

But then again luck's on your side
But I was here first, and I'm first in line

Now let me see you pull out your rights
What do you want from me? (I forgive you, I pretend
That I'm blind)

Spell it out for me (I'll erase you from the back of my mind)

What do you want from me, I have no guarantee
You got your city and lights and your will to be seen

Admire me now, admire me well
I strike a pose very well

Your feelings are hurt, but so could be mine




Evidently I don't mind
I stay here

Overall Meaning

and bask in the attention and admiration that I receive. I am aware of all the wrongdoings and mistakes you have made, as I have committed them to memory. Every detail is etched into my being like a permanent tattoo.


You can try to shift the blame or argue that it's a matter of life and death, but the truth remains that you belong to me. I could choose to fight back or lie about the situation, but luck seems to always be on your side. However, I want you to remember that I was here first, and I deserve to be at the forefront of your mind.


So go ahead and state your demands. What is it that you want from me? I am willing to forgive and pretend that I am oblivious to your actions. Just tell me explicitly what you desire, and I will erase any memory of you from the depths of my mind.


But be aware, your desires come with no guarantee. You may have your flashy city life and the desire to be seen, but I am the one worthy of admiration. I can strike a pose with ease and captivate all those who cross my path. Though your feelings may be hurt, mine could be too, yet I choose to remain unaffected. I will continue to stay in this space, reveling in the attention and disregarding any negative impact you may have had on me.

Come a little closer
I wanna dance with you
Everything's moving slower
I don't know what it isโ€…youโ€…do

Looking at theโŸsunset
Man, you're lookingโŸgood tonight

I want to kiss you before the sun goes down
