  • Buried myself into somebody else
    Shut out some parts of me
    Did it so casually

    I guess I needed that
    To be able to step back
    I lived my life without me
    I never allowed me to

    Too much I've had to live for
    Put my life on hold for
    I'm always pleasin' someone
    Honestly, now I'm done

    I don't need somebody to hold me
    Don't need somebody to love me
    Don't need somebody to pick these pieces up
    I put together my broken
    Let go of the pain I've been holdin'
    Don't need to need somebody
    When I got me

    Loved you so much
    Took an army to pull me up
    But now on the other side
    I remembered I could fly

    I told you I wanted you
    But you needed me to need you
    Your insecurity
    Was the death of you and me

    Too many times you questioned
    What were my intentions
    I never gave you reasons
    You're the one with secrets

    I don't need somebody to hold me
    Don't need somebody to love me
    Don't need somebody to pick these pieces up
    I put together my broken
    Let go of the pain I've been holdin'
    Don't need to need somebody
    When I got me
    When I got me
    When I got me

    I bet you feel the absence of my love every night
    There's no one else, you are the reason I said goodbye

    'Cause I don't need somebody to scold me
    Don't need somebody that hurts me
    Don't need somebody who feels weak standing next to me
    I put together my broken
    Let go of your hand I've been holdin'
    Don't need to need somebody
    When I got me
    When I got me, yeah Writer/s: Josh Ronen, Kelly Briannne Clarkson, Taylor Gayle Rutherfurd
