Steady I Stand

(album: Compliments Please - 2019)

Less is more
Less is more of me than you need
I know we're sore
You asked me about the bruise on my knee
I know you know where it came from as well as me
You never let me breathe
I never let you free

Outside my door
You run the engine that's on my watch
And your eyes bore
Anger I tell you now, I can match
I don't see how we can go anywhere from here
Oh God I want you but, I can't stand you

And I
Call to your mother, I overhear you cry
What does it matter? She hated me the whole time
And I've got an opinion, you'll never give the time to
And that's so you, yeah

You split me wide open
I split wide you open too
So I'll take all our money
Spent it forgetting 'bout you
I wanted everything my way
And we were both missing the chase
I made you a better man
But still steady I stand
And still steady I stand, and still steady I stand
And still steady I stand, and still steady I stand
And still steady I stand, and still steady I stand
And still steady I stand, and still steady I stand

Call it out, pull the cover so I can't see
You like me blind to all the digging you do at me
I'm only one more in a queue a mile deep
You wanted me needy, but I only ever need me

And I
Call to your mother, I overhear you cry
But what does it matter? She hated me the whole time
And I've got an opinion, you'll never give the time to
And that's so you, yeah

You split me wide open
I split wide you open too
So I'll take all our money
Spent it forgetting 'bout you
I wanted everything my way
And we were both missing the chase
But I made you a better man
And still steady I stand
And still steady I stand, and still steady I stand
And still steady I stand, and still steady I stand
And still steady I stand, and still steady I stand
And still steady I stand, and still steady I stand
