"You Wanted Us, You Got Us" lyrics

"You Wanted Us, You Got Us"
(feat. Zayna Youssef)

Pull the petals from my stem, pull at me till I'm thorns
You'll take from me till I'm gone
Burn myself at the altar till I'm callous as you
It's all I have to offer

You'll say you're sorry you've been so hard on me
But there's this pattern of self-hatred that I'm starting to see
You'll play this off like you always do
'Cause there's a root to our problems, and it's always been you

It's always been you held me back
Played out your part
Your spotlight won't last
Take this to heart

You'll say you're sorry you've been so hard on me
But there's this pattern of self-hatred that I'm starting to see
You'll play this off like you always do
'Cause there's a root to our problems, and it's always been you
You'll say you're sorry you've been so hard on me
But there's this pattern of self-hatred that I'm starting to see
You'll play this off like you always do
'Cause there's a root to our problems, and it's always been you

I don't expect you to be the one to answer
I don't expect you to be the one to change for me
When you're gone, none of this will matter
You can stay stuck like this, and I'll go on my way
