The Heavy's song "What You Want Me To Do?" is about a person who feels emotionally numb and disconnected from others. The lyrics suggest that they have been hurt in the past and have built up emotional walls as a result, but are willing to do whatever it takes to please the person they are addressing in the song. The repeated refrain of "What you want me to do, what you want me to say, how you need me to be?" highlights the speaker's willingness to put aside their own feelings and desires in order to meet the expectations of others. The song's title and chorus can be seen as a plea for guidance, with the speaker asking for clear instructions on how to behave in order to please those around them. However, the verses suggest a sense of internal conflict and confusion, with the speaker struggling to understand their own emotions and motivations. Lines like "Can't make no sense out of this, but I got to somehow" and "I see what you see here, but in this life you give what you get" hint at a deeper struggle with identity and purpose. Overall, "What You Want Me To Do?" speaks to the universal human desire for connection and validation, even at the expense of one's own emotional well-being. It is a poignant reminder that sometimes, the things we do for love can also be the things that leave us feeling the most lost and alone.
