Palomino
[Verse 1]
Work at the bar
Laugh at the guys bumping into us girls
Had freedom 'cause I had my car
And I wasn't trying to fall in love
Just figure out the world

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm feeding some kind of demon
Trying to get my heart to start beating

[Chorus]
What I want?
Is this really really what I want?
Turns him on, his idea of me
Am I really really what he wants?
Thinks I'm the secret to his West Coast dream
Is this really really what I want?
Someday soon, I'm gonna leave him here
Won't be able to touch me, catch me
Tell me that I'm what he fears

[Verse 2]
The diner at three
He studies mе like a bug, a butterfly
I say work's okay
It's the samе people every night
The lonely, the drunks, the lost
Colliding in the romance of the neon lights
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm feeding some kind of demon
Hoping that his heart will start, start beating

[Chorus]
'Cause, what I want?
Is this really really what I want?
Turns him on, his idea of me
Is this really really what I want?
I'm not the secret to his West Coast dream
Is this really really what I want?
Someday soon, I'm gonna leave him here
Won't be able to touch me, catch me
Tell me that I'm what he fears

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
What I want?
Is this really really what I want?
This is what I want
I'm gonna leave him here
