lyrics

Baby's back
Children lock up your dads
Well I been gone for so long from this luck I never had

Oh, do my best
Put on my trying dress
This brand new start and naked heart are all that I got left

And oh you
Always shone like a sun shower
So you
Can't help me so save your shit

I know that I can get by just perfectly fine on my own
But I don't want to
I don't want to
And if I sound desperate, it's probably cuz I'm fucking desperate
I want someone
They way that you have someone

Hand in hand
A sight I can hardly stand
The world is choosing curtains and I'm still playing with the band

Oh, summer dies
Watching the years go by
This flash of youth is fading, taking hits and getting high

And oh you
Pick your life out from pictures
So you
Don't get to tell me jack shit

I know that I can get by just perfectly fine on my own
But I don't want to
I don't want to
And if I sound desperate, it's probably cuz I'm fucking desperate
I want someone
They way that you have someone

Nice to meet you
I am simple and worthy of your love love love
Your love love love love
And you could love me if you only got to know me
And I need love love love
I need love love love love love

I know that I can get by just perfectly fine on my own
But I don't want to
I don't want to
And if I sound desperate, it's probably cuz I'm fucking desperate
I want someone
They way that you have someone
