Nobody Gets What They Want Anymore

Isn't it strange

Impossible to claim your reward

I cannot explain

Emotions I can barely afford to contain

And you're the same

You hide away from anything that turns you on

Nobody gets what they want anymore

No words on a screen

Could possibly protect you, you know what it means

Two is the chore

I'll place a ring around us and pray and pray

And sing the name

There is no blame, there is no shame, I need you more

Nobody gets what they want anymore

Nobody gets what they want anymore

Again, again

I know the shame

I wasted all on someone else's time

Nobody gets what they want anymore

Nobody gets what they want anymore

Nobody gets what they want anymore

Nobody gets what they want anymore

What am I going to do

When you're in trouble

And you don't call out for me

What am I gonna do

When I can see that you've been crying

And you don't want no help from me

Baby, I can't separate us out anymore

Baby, I can't separate us out anymore
