want someone from happy birthday by Empty Threats

A song that has no particular chorus but just keeps building to this epic abrasive guitar line at the end. It’s more of a piece reflecting the ebs and flows of trains of thought. Want someone follows the interplay/games between two people while dating, the ups and downs of a break up which then climaxes at this ending where the reminiscent feelings of being loved comes back into play. “This song is a slight insight into how my neurodivergent brain can stumble from feeling to feeling within a very short amount of time. Perhaps a spiral song when feeling overwhelmed & sad about a person.” - Stu. Accompanied by frantic running guitar lines that intertwine and build around the lyrics.

Lyrics

You want someone to fall down on their blistered knees,
I want someone to hug and hold, the perfect tease,
You will run down towards the shore scream out their name,
I’ll drown myself to keep the visions all but tame. Yep.

You want someone, you want someone, you want someone.
You want someone, you want someone, you want someone.
I want someone, I want someone, I want someone.
I want someone, I want someone, I want someone.

To hold me down, you leave I drown.
Fill my cup, fill your lungs, was it me that pushed away your golden touch.

And now i’m searching for a reason, not to jump off of the bridge,
I swim but I am sinking, you see the world through narrow vision.
Hard to feel connected with gun between the eyes,
Depressed and disconnected.
For a moment I’ll remember when I saw your smile,
When I felt your touch,
Yeah you were someone to please,
Now I want someone to love me, over and over.

(Chorus backing vocals)
I want someone to please,
You want someone to tease,
I’ll fall down on my knees,
Break my back, let you leave,
