Want v. Need

well you want what you want
and i want what i need
in the end though
does it matter who bleeds

but you take happiness
and twist it around
stomp on people's laughter
throw them to the ground

to watch you is to have
all the misery of knowing
nothing in life is worth
giving you all that you want

but you get it
and you'll get it
but you don't deserve it
you don't deserve anything

beyond the tears you cry
looking for sweet empathy
manipulating what you want
into what you need

maybe it's not money that
you'll be looking for
keep telling you lies
keep wasting your time

but you take happiness
and twist it around
stomp on people's smiles
and throw them to the ground

but it's all that you want
and you won't admit it
you pretend and pretend
but you'll never be complete
