[Verse 1]
I am being unraveled
Layer by layer
Something's breaking
Wish I could say it's been easy
But if I'm honest, it's quite terrifying
Letting go of what I know
Seeing it burn in the fire
Tell me and promise me that You're staying
Swear to me that something's really changing
[Chorus]
And I end up being needy
Oh, I thought that I was past being desperate
Thankfully You wound me with love
I get to be needy again
[Verse 2]
I spent so many days trying
To be my very best for You
My greatest efforts still failed me
I felt the strongest when I was crying
Finally, I'm growing tired
Of laboring to be my own savior
I'm moving out of my crystal castle
Into the sweetness of breaking down
[Chorus]
And I end up being needy
Oh, I thought that I was past being desperate
Thankfully You wound me with love
I get to be needy again
Again
[Bridge]
I acknowledge my dependency on You
If it's clingy, then I want it
The truth is I've no good apart from You
What a privilege to be softened
We can call this my state of union
I pledge allegiance to our communion
I'm caving in
I'm caving in
[Chorus]
And I end up being needy
Oh, I thought that I was past being desperate
Thankfully You wound me with love
I get to be needy again
[Outro]
I get to be needy
I get to be needy
