about

A song about wanting the best for each other.

lyrics

That night, you'd changed.
No longer full of comforting words.
I could see you were holding it back,
But wanting to get through.

I know, I said the wrong things
While defending my place.
I just didn't want you to leave.
I want you to feel me.

But you forgot
That I want you to get what you need.
I want to see what you see.
I'm not your past,
A whole different breed.
And I forgot
In all my insecurities
That you want me to get what I need.
You're not my past.
We'll get what we need.

Last night, I'd changed.
No longer full of beautiful words.
I knew I was holding it back,
But wanting to get through.

I know, I said the wrong things
While defending my space.
I just didn't want you to leave.
I want you to feel me.

But you forgot
That I want you to get what you need.
I want to see what you see.
I'm not your past,
A whole different breed.
And I forgot
In all my insecurities
That you want me to get what I need.
You're not my past.
We'll get what we need.

Anxiety
Is the worst of me,
But comes from the best of me,
'Cause I want you to get what you need!

But you forgot
That I want you to get what you need.
I want to see what you see.
I'm not your past,
A whole different breed.
And I forgot
In all my insecurities
That you want me to get what I need.
You're not my past.
We'll get what we need.
