LYRICS
Show me what you want to see,
And I will let you believe,
You get just what you deserve,
Keep me closer for a while
I wanna see if you smile
When this all comes back around
What you want, what you get, what you’ve come to expect
There's really no time left,
So don’t hold your breath
Tell me what you want to hear,
I’ll whisper it in your ear,
You and me are gonna go far
Stacked against you from the go,
Tie your fate with a bow,
This is what you worried for.
What you want, what you get, what you’ve come to expect
There's really no time left,
So don’t hold your breath
