All I Want Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Pull me up off of the pavement
Dilated eyes in the blue sunrise, no!
That can't be me — I must be mistaken
I've been an angel my whole life

How well do you know yourself?
How clear without the mirror of someone else
'Cause sometimes my shadow gets the best of me
A black black so pitch that I cannot breathe
And I cannot speak, and I cannot hide
But I guess you can't be free of what you keep inside, well--
How well do you know your limits?
The deeper the dream the longer you’re in it

[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe if I had a little more money
Maybe if I had a little more sex

Maybe with a little more peace and quiet
Maybe I could make a little more sense of it

[Chorus]
All that I want, all that I want
All that I want, all that I want
All that I want, all that I want
All that I want, all that I want
All that I want, all that I want
All that I want, all that I want
All that I want, all that I want
All that I want, all that I want
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe if I had a little more money
Maybe if I had a little more sex
Maybe with a little more peace and quiet
Maybe I could make a little more sense of it

[Chorus]
All that I want, all that I want
All that I want, all that I want
All that I want, all that I want
All that I want, all that I want
All that I want, all that I want
All that I want, all that I want
All that I want, all that I want
All that I want
A little more sense of it
All that I want

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

On “All I Want,” Nick Petricca asks himself how he can make sense of all the things he wants out of this life. “It’s about realizing that external validation isn’t really worth that much,” he says. “It has to come from within.”
