General Information

Written by: A. Lee and T. Balsamo and T. McCord

"What You Want" is the first single to be released from Evanescence's self-titled Third Album. It features heavy riffs, strong vocals, and has a theme of freedom.

In an interview with MTVnews, Amy Lee said:

"It's about freedom — that's definitely a constant theme on the record — but, it's like Evanescence, and me, and my relationship with the music and the fans, and coming to that [realization] of 'This is what I'm supposed to do ... I want to do this, and when it says, 'Remember who you really are,' that's exactly everything you could assume it means.

A sample of "What You Want" was released on MTV's website on Monday July the 11th. The single is expected to be released early August 2011.

Lyrics

Every heart in my hands
Like a pale reflection
Hello, hello
Remember me?
I'm everything you can't control
