I don't need you
I just like to feed
And 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

'Cause 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 sounds
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 okay for a little while
You tell me I am like a child
Yet with thе wisdom of a sage
I want to end it at that stage

'Causе 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 just to love their own essence
