About What I Want

"What I Want" is a song recorded by American rock band Daughtry for their self titled debut album (2007). It was released to rock radio in the United States on April 23, 2007 as the second US rock single and third overall single from the album. The song features Slash on guitar, earning him a featured artist credit on the single. The band opted to release the track to rock radio only, because their second single, "Home", was not being played on rock stations due to its lighter sound. Since the band had had success on the format with their first single, "It's Not Over", they wanted to follow the song up, so they opted to release "What I Want". Since this was not a full single release, a music video for the song was not made. "What I Want" is also featured as one of the songs on the Guitar Hero: On Tour game for the Nintendo DS. more »

It always seemed that I was sorry for the things that I did
But never did a thing about it till I let you in
It's kinda funny: by the time that I was falling apart
You came and put me back together, now...

'Cause what I want
And what I need
Has now become the same thing
You've been offering
As days go by
I've finally become what you want me to be

I still remember all the stupid things that I've said and done
But still, you stuck around with me when all your friends said, "Run!"
Givin' me a name; I found myself inside all the flames
Becoming everything for you again is...

What I want
And what I need
Has now become the same thing
You've been offering
As days go by
I've finally become what you want me to be

Don't tell me you saw it all along
God help me, I never knew it alone
Guess I was wrong

What I want
And what I need
Has now become the same thing
You've been offering
As days go by
I've finally become what you want me to be

And what I need
Has now become the same thing
You've been offering
You've taken me
And shaped me to become what you want me to be
