The One You Want Lyrics
All poison and thrills,
A handful of pills
Waiting around
Nails cut to the quick
Yeah, you broke what you fixed
You’re so underground
What you waiting for?
What you waiting for?
Said and done
But it’s too late to turn your age around
She’s not the one you want
One settles the score
(With) a trip to the floor
Look what we've found
Makes sense of the scene
Keep a routine?
Standing on sound
What you waiting for?
What you waiting for?
Said and done
But it’s too late to turn your age around
She’s not the one you want
Yeah, it’s too late to turn your age around
She’s not the one you want
How do you do it?
With your back against the wall
How do you ruin all these promises?
Promises and nothing else
What you waiting for?
What you waiting for?
Said and done
But it’s too late to turn your age around
She’s not the one you want
Yeah, it’s too late to turn your age around
She’s not the one you want
So tell me something that I didn’t know.
A handful of pills
Waiting around
Nails cut to the quick
Yeah, you broke what you fixed
You’re so underground
What you waiting for?
Said and done
But it’s too late to turn your age around
She’s not the one you want
(With) a trip to the floor
Look what we've found
Makes sense of the scene
Keep a routine?
Standing on sound
What you waiting for?
Said and done
But it’s too late to turn your age around
She’s not the one you want
Yeah, it’s too late to turn your age around
She’s not the one you want
With your back against the wall
How do you ruin all these promises?
Promises and nothing else
What you waiting for?
Said and done
But it’s too late to turn your age around
She’s not the one you want
Yeah, it’s too late to turn your age around
She’s not the one you want

wow... this is an almost perfect pop song...
i love this song. excellent.
i think its about staying with someone who doesn't make you happy but your eventually to old to find someone else
I agree it's an almost perfect pop song. The video is also perfect too, it should have ended with the main character bieng stuck with the check for all the food though...
love it <3
the lyrics arent their best but i loove the music in this part: "How do you do it? With your back against the wall How do you ruin all these promises? Promises and nothing else" yaa, it makes me dance.
I love this song soo much!!! I love the fact that its loud and upbeat but it has like a perfect meaning...
What you waiting for? What you waiting for? Said and done But it’s too late to turn your age around
that part means like don't wait for it, take your chance or you'll end up with the wrong girl and then it's too late to turn your age around and try to get the girl you wanted....do your stuck with the one you dont want
This is a great song, almost perfect. As Atticus Finch once quote "love it
I think that line about turning your age around is great because you sometimes want to go back and change things, but we can't. We have to move on, and get older to learn more about who we will be.
Excellent song.
