I don't need you But you need me And now, that I Finally see My dreams are slipping away Everyday I awake Wondering Is it too late? For so many years I've tried To take what was in my mind And turn the page, to a brighter side And now I finally say That there's more to me than there is to you I don't need you but you need me I'm trapped in your shadows My dreams intervene With reality before me Will I ever be at peace? Was this what you had in mind? Insecure until the day I die Will I ever truly feel alive? Echoes become a familiar sound Bouncing around in a hollow body Words I can't seem to get out Are floating around inside my demented mind I am losing my fucking mind I should've done better You should've done better As I watch it slip through my fingers Your goals, your dreams, your everything This is all too familiar And now I finally say That there's more to me than there is to you I don't need you but you need me I'm trapped in your shadows I lost myself For a moment I was alright I lost myself Sitting alone I feel my mind slip I'm scared I'll never amount to anything Is it worth my time To find what's left inside To piece together remnants of my life
