“In the first verse of "Everything I Want”, I describe watching someone walking away from me, all the way until they reached the “vanishing point” – the point at which objects disappear into the horizon.

Everything I Want Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In the wake of the night, Ahh
I wanna pray some but I'm all out of dance
So he let me topple over at the lights
The road is long to whence you walked
I don't wanna be the one to wait
So I don't walk that way anymore
In the rhythm of the moon
Like its body at the vanishing point
Everything I want becomes a ghost
[Chorus]
Everything I want becomes a ghost
I'll be in the glow from your door
I'll be always chasing something more
I'll be heavy on your mind
While everything I want becomes a ghost again
[Verse 2]
When the gaze becomes a lust
Why do bodies pile up?
Where the hollow ground before me makes a void
Where the bottom falls out
Where everything we want was never ours
Guessed we never learnt to wait
Listen to the hurt
Resound colonial dust
So it's no wonder
It's no wonder
[Chorus]
Everything we want becomes a ghost
I'll be in the glow from your door
I'll be chasing something more
I'll be heavy on your mind
While everything I want becomes a ghost
(Everything we want becomes a ghost)
I'll be in the glow from your door
I'll be chasing something more
I'll be heavy on your mind
While everything becomes a ghost, again
Everything I want becomes a ghost, again
