I Wanna Be

We never thought about the future
We only thought about this moment
The day you placed your heart in my hands,
I became your future, with no hope
Never meant for you to be my first one
First love is always first forgotten
Didn't mean to kill your pet canary
I can never bring it back, don't panic!
If we tried we'd only lie and steal,
More pain we gotta feel
You're in my head
I wanna be, I wanna be
The only thing you see at night
Until your memory has gone
I wanna be, I wanna be
Your favorite power tool
Until I'm satisfied
I'd hate to think tonight, it's finally over
All the things we do must have some meaning
I must have meant to kill your pet canary
The orange cat and later on the little white dog
I'm snuffin' out their memories
I scream, they scream at you
They're in my head
