​i just need a place to be

[Verse 1]
I'm paranoid, but I don't think enough
And every time I cry for help, I wasn't good enough for them
Never good enough for them
Never good enough to stay

[Chorus]
It's been like ten years, baby
Six more months and I'll be dead and gone
Runnin' through my head as I run through the past
I don't want it to end
Don't try too hard if you're heartless
My heart is broken, but it was like that regardless
And I got love for people showin' their affection to me
But when I'm down 'n' about, would you come link up with me?

[Post-Chorus]
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 2]
I don't want you around, got too much to figure out
You know it's makin' me drown
And I've thought about it through and I can't have you around
The best things are hard to say bye to and that's okay
I keep making all the same mistakes
I don't wanna give up, but I don't see other ways
Ah, ah, ah, ah, uh-oh
I just need a place to be
Trying too hard, they don't want me to see
When it's tough, people talk, that's what happened to me
When it's good, people up, I don't want it for free
I just need a place to be
Trying too hard, they don't want me to see
When it's tough, people talk, that's what happened to me
When it's good, people up, I don't want it for free

[Bridge]
Yeah, we pullin' up, but we don't take shit for free (Oh, oh)
You know I'm with all my bros 'n' yeah, we takin' the lead
I don't want your help, I don't need your assistance (Oh, oh)
I've been fuckin' up, but got none of my vision

[Chorus]
It's been like ten years, baby
Six more months, and I'll be crazy
Runnin' through my head, runner in the makin'
Time passes by, but it feels so taken
Don't try too hard if you're heartless
My heart is broken, but it was like that regardless
And I got love for people showin' their affection to me
But when I'm down 'n' about, would you come link up with me?
