Feeling wanted is like a drug It gets in your veins and you can't get enough The problem is the wanter could be wrong And he wants you and you want him to belong In your life so that you stay satisfied With that drug that he has supplied But after grasping at handfuls of air You look down and realize nothing is there He is like trying to fill a bottomless pail With a water of emotions, it fails So after all the trial and error you see The pail won't fill cause he doesn't own keys To happiness living deep in your soul He is the wrong wanter and won't make you whole

The Wanter, The Wanted
Feeling wanted is like a drug It gets in your veins and you can't get enough The problem is the wanter could be wrong And he wants you and you want him to belong In your life so that you stay satisfied With that drug that he has supplied But after grasping at handfuls of air You look down and realize nothing is there He is like trying to fill a bottomless pail With a water of emotions, it fails So after all the trial and error you see The pail won't fill cause he doesn't own keys To happiness living deep in your soul He is the wrong wanter and won't make you whole
