[Verse 1]
I don't need nobody
Please see I'm probably doing alright
And it's cool and it's chill
Don't worry about my feels
Cause I don't worry about you still
[Pre-Chorus]
But damn it's hard to heal
When it was never real
When it was never real
[Chorus]
I hardly see you
And that's good cause I don't really need you
I hardly see you
Cover your face like SIA
I hardly see you
And that's good cause I don't really need you
I hardly see you
Cover your face like SIA
[Bridge]
I hear them singing
I want you I need you eh
I need you I want you
I hear them singing
I want you I need you yeah
I want you I need you yeah
You're a problem I could never solve
Need to walk away I need results
[Chorus]
I hardly see you
And that's good cause I don't really need you
I hardly see you
Cover your face like SIA
I hardly see you
And that's good cause I don't really need you
I hardly see you
Cover your face like SIA (oh I hardly)
[Verse 2]
Give me a break
I'm not feeling that way no more, no more
I'm not really sure
So give me a break
I'm not feeling that way no more, no more
I'm not really sure
[Chorus]
I hardly see you
And that's good cause I don't really need you
I hardly see you
Cover your face like SIA
I hardly see you
And that's good cause I don't really need you
I hardly see you
Cover your face like SIA (oh I hardly)
SIA was written by Stevan.
SIA was produced by Stevan.
An October 2020 NME article quotes Stevan saying:
‘SIA’ is about trying to find independence after relying heavily on someone. The idea of not seeing them becoming empowering, as you realise you don’t need them.
