Need Me

You're drunk, the carpet is burned I hate to find you like this I always find you like this I come home and clean up your mess What would you do without that? Why do I always come back? Oh, what wouldn't I do for you And I'm starting to think that maybe you need me Maybe you need me Maybe you need me And I'm starting to think that maybe you need me Maybe you need me Maybe you need me Some nights I want to run for the hills It's never easy with you I cannot reason with you But your smile, as rare as it comes What would I do without that? Maybe that's why I come back Oh, what wouldn't I do for you And I'm starting to think that maybe you need me Maybe you need me Maybe you need me And I'm starting to think that maybe you need me Maybe you need me Maybe you need me I'm starting to think we were made for each other But one of us in this relationship is raising the other You remind me of my mother We drive one another crazy as each other And we're both adults and there's no excuse for the games that we play with each other Where you at? At a friend's? No, you ain't, motherfucker But I give her the benefit of the doubt Whenever the doubt kicks in, shiver When I touch her, 'cause I love her so much, I'm a sucker Now her bottom lip can quiver when she's in trouble, she's in hot water Think I caught her cheatin' again Give her another chance? Another one after that? I'm swimming in that Egyptian River 'cause I'm in denial Say I don't eat shit, but I have a shit-eating grin when I smile Making an excuse for her, start actin' out She's just acting out, with her inner child Then I set the truth on fire 'Cause I'd rather believe a lie Then I breathe a sigh of relief I don't believe in going to bed mad I keep on trying to make a bad girl good But haven't I stood by you in good times And bad, I'm starting to feel like you're god damn dead 'Cause I literally feel like you could die of a "should I?" Leave me for good? You never would Now it'd be your bad Never understood why they call it goodbye But I think I'm a pretty damn good guy And you're a good person, too I can save you, I can make you change But I keep putting my fuckin' foot in my mouth Every time I gotta come and bail you out When you get in trouble that you get yourself in I'm in trouble but I can't leave I'd sell you out I could never turn my fuckin' back on you What is that? I'm co-dependent I'm just now noticin' it But somehow it's like every time I'm about to go to end it I ain't got the cojones to do it Nor the heart, our apartment's tore apart You're using my heart for a dart board But God must've found stars for us 'cause somebody paired us up And they say he ain't capable of making a mistake But this one's perfect 'cause I'm I'm starting to think that maybe you need me Maybe you need me Maybe you need me And I'm starting to think that maybe you need me Maybe you need me Maybe you need me
