| i don’t need you
|
| i just like to feed you
|
| if someone took you
|
| i’d be relieved
|
| you need to need me
|
| and you sort of feed me
|
| with constant adoration
|
| and i need to break free
|
| i don’t wanna be loved
|
| for the things i do or the words i say
|
| and i do not enjoy this pattern
|
| and i do want to change your ways
|
| but you will always be you
|
| you know i see right through
|
| the way you make yourself small
|
| just to make me look good
|
| although i really don’t need it
|
| just be yourself
|
| it’s understood
|
| come on and hear it from my point of sound
|
| this cycle will just keep spinning 'round and 'round
|
| you threw it up
|
| now it comes down:
|
| to me not letting you tie bonds
|
| it’s ok for a little while
|
| you tell me i am like a child
|
| yet with the wisdom of a sage
|
| i want to end it at that stage
|
| 'cause i need not to need a person
|
| to constantly give me their version
|
| of how unique and great i am
|
| i’m saying stop because i can
|
| express my right to just be
|
| and relate in a state of presence
|
| i’d love to love someone who feels free
|
| enough to just love my pure essence
|
| and after all i can do
|
| is write this song and sing it through
|
| what am i really feeding on?
|
| who loves who and who goes on?
|
| when i reject you feel offended
|
| by how abruptly it all ended
|
| you want to know the reasons why
|
| i tell you
|
| we both have wings and need to fly
|
| and as surely as we all outlive our bodies
|
| i will receive your utmost sorries
|
| the qualities you love me for
|
| are now just grinding your core
|
| 'cause i need not to need a person
|
| to constantly give me their version
|
| of how unique and great i am
|
| i’m saying stop because i can
|
| express my right to just be
|
| and relate in a state of presence
|
| i’d love to love someone who feels free
|
| enough to just love my pure essence |
