[Verse 1]
We lie awake at night
We're tired of waiting
Too high to sleep
Too tired to try
[Pre-Chorus]
Life is strange
We die, and we don't know why
[Chorus]
I don’t know what I want, know that I don’t know what I want
I don’t know what I want, know that I don’t know what I want
No, nobody knows, nobody does, nobody knows
No, nobody knows, nobody does, nobody knows
[Verse 2]
We lie awake at night
We're tired of waiting

But I'm afraid to die
[Chorus]
I don’t know what I want, know that I don’t know what I want
I don’t know what I want, know that I don’t know what I want
No, nobody knows, nobody does, nobody knows
No, nobody knows, nobody does, nobody knows
[Verse 3]
We fall apart

[Chorus]
I don’t know what I want, know that I don’t know what I want
I don’t know what I want, know that I don’t know what I want
No, nobody knows, nobody does, nobody knows
No, nobody knows, nobody does, nobody knows
I don’t know what I want, know that I don’t know what I want
I don’t know what I want, know that I don’t know what I want
No, nobody knows, nobody does, nobody knows
No, nobody knows, nobody does, nobody knows
