I Want
Ocean Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You said you love me, but its not a fact
When you said it, we lost eye contact
Now I'm feeling trapped
All my hope just snapped
You said you love me, but its not a fact
When you said it, we lost eye contact
Man, I feel so trapped
I'm just feeling trapped
Now I hate myself for loving you
That's the only things that I can do
Cause I could never blame you
Although sometimes I wanna fucking kill you
Now I hate myself for loving you
That's the only things that I can do
Cause I could never blame you
Although sometimes I wanna fucking kill you
I don't know what you want
But all I want is you
Your love was a hand grenade
Now my heart is a wound
I don't know what you want
But all I want is you
Your love was a hand grenade
Now my heart is a wound
All I want is something I can never have
And I cant stop thinking about it
All I want is something I can never have
And I cant stop thinking about it
All I want is something I can never have
And I cant stop thinking about it
All I want is something I can never have
And I cant stop thinking about it
If there was something I could do
If there was something I could do




If there was something I could do
If there was something I could do

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "I Want" are a raw and emotional expression of unfulfilled love and the pain that comes with it. The singer begins by addressing their lover who had previously professed love but now seems distant, causing a sense of being trapped and hopeless. The singer acknowledges that they hate themselves for still loving their partner despite the hurt they have caused. They cannot bring themselves to blame their partner for their feelings, even though they sometimes feel like they just want to "fucking kill" them. The singer is torn between their desire for what they can never have and the emotional wound left by their lover's destructive love, which is likened to a hand grenade that has left their heart wounded.


The repetition of the lines "All I want is something I can never have" expresses the singer's intense longing for their partner, even though they know that the relationship is not healthy. The repeated plea for "something I can do" reinforces the idea of feeling trapped and powerless in the situation. The lyrics paint a picture of emotional turmoil and the complex nature of love that can be both healing and destructive.

I want you
Yeah I want you
And nothing comes close
To the way that I need you
I wish I can feel your skin
And I want you
From somewhere within

It feels like there's oceans
Between me and you once again
We hide our emotions
Under the surface and tryin' to pretend
But it feels like there's oceans
Between you and me

I want you
And I always will
I wish I was worth
But I know what you deserve
You know I'd rather drown
Than to go on without you
But you're pulling me down

It feels like there's oceans
Between you and me once again
We hide our emotions
Under the surface and try to pretend
But it feels like there's oceans
Between you and me

I want you
I want you
And always will

It feels like there's oceans
Between you and me

"Oceans"

I want you
Yeah I want you
And nothing comes close
To the way that I need you
I wish I can feel your skin
And I want you
From somewhere within

It feels like there's oceans
Between me and you once again
We hide our emotions
Under the surface and tryin' to pretend
But it feels like there's oceans
Between you and me

I want you
And I always will
I wish I was worth
But I know what you deserve
You know I'd rather drown
Than to go on without you
But you're pulling me down

It feels like there's oceans
Between you and me once again
We hide our emotions
Under the surface and try to pretend
But it feels like there's oceans
Between you and me

I want you
I want you
And always will

It feels like there's oceans
Between you and me
