Never Needed You
Jacob Lee
('Cause I can't find freedom on this canvas)
(There we go)
All my life, I’ve been anxiously waiting for someone
To pull me away from here
Help me to disappear
How should I know what to do when you’re not here?
I waited patiently
You never came for me
So cut off my breath
Empty my lungs
Hollow my chest
Salvage my heart
Bury what's left
If you love me to death
There is someone waiting for me down below
I would rather leave him unprovoked
I don’t believe I belong here, but
There is nowhere else for me that I can go
I have been learning to levitate
Head and heart, I’ve been trying to separate
They keep telling me that I should meditate
Have you ever seen a demon meditate? (yeah)
Alright
Leave me in darkness
My eyes adjusted, now I'm kinda nauseous (yeah)
Alright
Knock me unconscious
‘Cause I'm too awake for my own good, I promise
I never thought that I’d say this
But I never needed you
Convince myself that I'm wise when I say that
I never needed you
So give me one more chance
I’ve been wrong before, so I could be that way again
Don’t you ever ask me what it’s like to lose a friend
I have issues to process, but that doesn’t matter to them
There is someone waiting for me down below
I would rather leave him unprovoked
I don’t believe I belong here, but
There is nowhere else for me that I can go
I have been learning to levitate
Head and heart, I’ve been trying to separate
They keep telling me that I should meditate
Have you ever seen a demon meditate? (yeah, yeah)
Alright
Fuck being honest
I tried the truth, but you never responded (yeah)
Alright
Knock me unconscious
‘Cause I'm too awake for my own good, I promise
So fed up
So annoyed at feeling like I am not quite enough
Everyone is faking, you know it as well as us
Who do I depend on when I don’t know who to trust?
I don’t know who to trust, yeah
(I just care too much)
I don’t know who to trust
I don’t know who to trust, yeah
(I just care too much)
I don’t know who to trust
I don’t know who to trust, yeah
There is someone waiting for me down below
Not a human, angel, or a ghost
I don’t believe I belong here, but
I'm afraid I may have cut it way too close
I have been learning to levitate
Head and heart, I’ve been trying to separate
They keep telling me that I should meditate
Have you ever seen a demon meditate? (yeah yeah)
Alright
Leave me in darkness
My eyes adjusted, now I seem neurotic (yeah)
Alright
Knock me unconscious
‘Cause I'm too awake for my own good, I promise
