[Verse 1]
Two nights ago she got that look in her eyes
Kaleidoscope, but that's only half the time
Three days before she told me that I don't even try
She's crazy, though, I guess there's something wrong inside
[Hook]

(What do you want? What do you want?)
...Do you want from me?
What... (What do you want from me?)
(What do you want? What do you want?)
...Do you want from me now?
