I Don't Need You

(album: Like A House On Fire - 2020)

You can't say I didn't try
If I'm honest, I probably gave a little too much
Been on the ledge for a while
'Cause I promised, that I would be
You can say I wasn't good enough but you know
That that doesn't change what really happened here
That I have grown
Into someone you never thought I could

Someone who could walk away from it all
Someone who could stand alone and be alright

'Cause I don't need you to tell me
Who I am or what I'm meant to be
I don't need you to make up my mind
There's so much I wanted to say
But I can't find the words

Hate to hear you're doing fine
If I'm honest, I think about you all the time
But we left us behind
To find out what we could be
Yeah, you brought out the worst of me so I know
If I stay then we would both drown
But now I've grown
Into someone you never thought I could

Someone who could walk away from it all
Someone who could stand alone and be alright

'Cause I don't need you to tell me
Who I am or what I'm meant to be
I don't need you to make up my mind
There's so much I wanted to say
But I can't find the words to
I don't need you
I don't need you

After all's said and done
I know I'm gonna get through this
Rebuild the bridges I've burned down
And find the light in the darkness

After all's said and done
I know I'm gonna get through this
I'll find the light in the darkness
In the darkness

I don't need you to tell me
Who I am or what I'm meant to be
I don't need you to make up my mind
My mind

There's so much I wanted to say
But I can't find the words to
There's so much I wanted to say
But I can't find the words
I don't need you, no, no, oh
I don't need you, no more, no more
