LOVE WANTS TO BE Feat. HAMISH STUART

[Verse 1] I never wanted to play make believe I tried to stay within reality And from a real young age I learned to cope with pain I never was the same [Verse 2] I didn't want you to be superman I only wanted you to hold my hand I guess I asked too much Or wasn't worth enough But I kept faith because - [Interlude] You're supposed to love and protect me Sorry that I didn't turn out the way That you wanted, but I just wanted you to stay You're supposed to love and accept me Instead I waited, wasting so much time And without you, I really had to sacrifice The part of my heart that believed dreams could come to life [Pre-Chorus] I played my part, you had my heart Believed it all would work out without a shred of doubt But in your eyes I couldn't fly Why wasn't I good enough? Guess I just don't mean much Is it too late to quit this game? [Chorus] Fill me with poison, make me numb I don't care if my heart stops Feed me your bullshit, hope it works That's all you're fucking good for [Post-Chorus] Thanks for nothing, thanks for n-n-n-noth-noth— Thanks for nothing, thanks for n-n-noth— Thanks for nothing, thanks for n-n-n-noth-noth— Thanks for nothing, thanks for n-n-nothing [Verse 3] Should I apologize for giving up? Should I be sorry that I've had enough? Of broken promises Excessive harsh judgments And subtle rejections [Verse 4] Are you aware of what you've done to me? Or are you so just blind that you can't see The scars that you've left here? Mutating into fear Of people getting near [Interlude] Why didn't you love and accept me? Sorry that I didn't turn out the way That you wanted, but I just wanted you to stay Why couldn't you love and protect me? Instead I waited, wasting so much time And without you, I really had to sacrifice The part of my heart that believed dreams could come to life [Pre-Chorus] You had a chance, I took it back Why should I let you go free when you can't stop hurting me? Wish I were strong enough to hold on But the ache grows and grows As long as I still can't say "No" So you've got to go [Chorus] Swallow your poison, just one gulp I want you to drink it all Have just a taste of what you serve This is how bad your lies hurt [Post-Chorus] Thanks for nothing, thanks for n-n-n-noth-noth— Thanks for nothing, thanks for n-n-noth— Thanks for nothing, thanks for n-n-n-noth-noth— Thanks for nothing, thanks for n-n-nothing [Bridge] I'm not too sensitive And I'm not incompetent You failed the job that you were meant to have in my life No, I'm not incompetent No, I'm not too sensitive And if you really cared then you'd just say you're sorry The saddest part is that you won't even hear this song I wish that things had been different But now I just can't leave it all behind If I could heal the wounds within Maybe we both could start again For now I can't, my heart is cracked, so until then Can't let you in, this is the end [Chorus] Fill me with poison, make me numb I don't care if my heart stops Feed me your bullshit, hope it works That's all you're fucking good for Swallow your poison, just one gulp I want you to drink it all Have just a taste of what you serve This is how bad your lies hurt [Post-Chorus] Thanks for nothing, thanks for n-n-n-noth-noth— Thanks for nothing, thanks for n-n-noth— Thanks for nothing, thanks for n-n-n-noth-noth— Thanks for nothing, thanks for n-n-nothing
