Attention

(album: I've Loved You For So Long - 2023)

You were crying and trying to hide it
Didn't think anyone would hear
Oh, and just when you're getting excited
Start to realize your biggest fear

You've given me everything
Constantly pretending
That you wouldn't go change us for anything
I've become your enemy
You've started resenting me
Calling me in tears, and you're telling me

She says, "Hey"
I wanna be in love with
Someone who calls
Before it's 4am, and
I'm tired of tearing you apart, know your heart
Has had enough, it's obvious you're starved for affection
And you need more, and you need more, you need more attention

I'm out with friends, and you're in my head, and
I drove this far to come to this bar 'cause
This one's your favorite, I'm just here waiting
To show you how over you I am, 'cause I am, baby

You've given me everything
Constantly pretending
That you wouldn't go change us for anything
I've become your enemy
You've started resenting me
Calling me in tears, and you're telling me

She says, "Hey"
I wanna be in love with
Someone who calls
Before it's 4am, and
I'm tired of tearing you apart, know your heart
Has had enough, it's obvious you're starved for affection
And you need more, and you need more, you need more attention
