I have a proud heart
Haven't yet seen it all
But I've been spit on
By the ones I thought were real
& I don't drink much
When I do,
I just,
Get thoughtful until I've had my fill
I'm from a small town,
But I still get out.
I've been let down
& I let down those who looked up to me somehow
You'll find me,
American dream,
My Korean eyes barely ever blinking
I used to battle all the nights alone
I used to fool myself
That you had gone
But the truth
Is I need you
I used to care about the rock & roll
I grew a face my momma
Didn't know
But the truth
Yeah,
Is that I need you.
I filled my paper bags with all my old shoes
Yeah, I'm on the move,
But I got no stone to throw
I want what they have
What my parents cracked
What's a gamble if you've got nothing to lose?
I'm from a small town
But I still clean out
Yeah, I've been burnt out,
But I burnt up all the pieces of my bad luck.
I found you
Rght where I left you
You never left me
Even when I left you
I used to batlle all the night alone
I used to fool myself that you had gone
But the truth,
Is I need you.
I used to care about the rock & roll
I grew a face my momma
Didn't know
But the truth
Yeah.
Is that I need you.
Built my bridges up to make a city
I didn't realize you couldn't see me
I'm from a small town,
But I still clean out
I'm from a small town,
But I still get down
I'm from a small town,
But I still get out
I'm from a small town,
But I still get down
I used to batlle all the night alone
I used to fool myself that you had gone
But the truth,
Is I need you.
I used to care about the rock & roll
I grew a face my momma
Didn't know
But the truth
Yeah.
Is that I need you.
Is that I need you
I need you.
I need you.
