Like you mean it Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Don’t even bother waiting
Just keep the words you’re saying
Don’t need to hear ’em, ’cause I can feel it
I needed change, you needed
Someone to hate, because it’s
Easy to blame, but it’s hard to deal with
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s never-ending
You’ve been searching for a reason not to end it
You’ve been holding on when everything is shaking
You’ve been saying that it’s better, but you’re faking
[Chorus]
You can’t call it healing, running from a feeling
I can’t be the only good thing that you got
So love me like you mean it
Not like you need it
I can’t be thе air that you’re breathing
When I’m barеly breathing at all
[Verse 2]
There’s nothing left to say now
Just watch the story play out
Can’t change the path we paved out
Can’t shake how (Uh)
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s never-ending
You’ve been searching for a reason not to end it
You’ve been holding on when everything is shaking
You’ve been saying that it’s better, but you’re faking
[Chorus]
You can’t call it healing, running from a feeling
I can’t be the only good thing that you got
So love me like you mean it
Not like you need it (Not like you need it)
I can’t be the air that you’re breathing
When I’m barely breathing at all
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
You can’t call it healing, running from a feeling
I can’t be the only good thing that you got
So love me like you mean it
Not like you need it
I can’t be the air that you’re breathing
When I’m barely breathing at all
[Outro]
(We talk, it gets rough, we kiss, we get stuck)
(We say what we want, it’s never enough) Yeah, yeah
(You get what you get, you take what you can’t)
When I’m barely breathing at all (I leave, you come back again, again)
(We talk, it gets rough, we kiss, we get stuck) At all
(We say what we want, it’s never enough)
I can’t be the air that you’re breathing (You get what you get, you take what you can’t)
When I’m barely breathing (I leave, you come back again, again)
At all
