Things I Never Needed
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Take a long hard look at my face
Take away the things I can't replace
Take my heart, go on take it away
I've got nothing to say
Take away this sense of regret
Take the things I need to forget
Take the mistakes I haven't made yet
They're all I have left
I don't want to be the one who lets you down
All I did was run myself around
I wish I could have seen through your eyes
Maybe then I would have realized
I'm the only one who's bleeding
For the things I never needed
The things I never needed
Take a good long look at yourself
Take the weight off everyone else
Take the hardest blow that was dealt
It's all on your shoulders
I don't want to be the one who lets you down
All I did was run myself around
I wish I could have seen through your eyes
Maybe then I would have realized
I'm the only one who's bleeding
For the things I never needed
The things I never needed
I don't want to be the one who lets you down
All I did was run myself around
I wish I could have seen through your eyes
Maybe then I would have realized
I'm the only one who's bleeding
For the things I never needed
The things I never needed
