WANTED U Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Here I am
Torn into a thousand shapes and folds
Torn into a thousand ways, I know
Fornicate inside your broken homes
Before I throw a smile your way, no more
[Verse 2]
I can't tell
If all my answers correlate at all
I'm telling you a thousand things I know
[Chorus]
I've been missing a long time
To know I had to move
I've been waiting my whole life
To know I wanted you
Are you feeling me slowly?
You can take your fucking time
And I promise I won't lie
We'll make it out alive
[Verse 3]
I'm on trial
I'm not so good at hiding wholesome truths
You see it on my face when I turn blue
So punish me, I'm hanging on your noose
So pull me up so I can breathe with you
Here I am
Torn into a thousand shapes and folds
Torn into a thousand ways, I know
Fornicate inside your broken homes
Before I throw a smile your way, no more
[Verse 2]
I can't tell
If all my answers correlate at all
I'm telling you a thousand things I know
[Chorus]
I've been missing a long time
To know I had to move
I've been waiting my whole life
To know I wanted you
Are you feeling me slowly?
You can take your fucking time
And I promise I won't lie
We'll make it out alive
[Verse 3]
I'm on trial
I'm not so good at hiding wholesome truths
You see it on my face when I turn blue
So punish me, I'm hanging on your noose
So pull me up so I can breathe with you
[Chorus]
I know
I've been missing a long time
To know I had to move
I've been waiting my whole life
To know I wanted you
Are you feeling me slowly?
You can take your fucking time
And I promise I won't lie
We'll make it out alive
[Outro]
Ah, ah, ah, ah
I know
I've been missing a long time
To know I had to move
I've been waiting my whole life
To know I wanted you
Are you feeling me slowly?
You can take your fucking time
And I promise I won't lie
We'll make it out alive
[Outro]
Ah, ah, ah, ah
