Strings

It was what you wanted Now it's what I need Are we together or not I'm feeling stuck in between At first I really fought it I like having you around But soon enough I spotted This one-way street downtown And it's hard and it's hardly the end of the road But I can't let go just yet And you know it, I've told you, it's bold of you To ask me to stay attached It's just favors for favors And a spiderweb of strings Do you only want a man Who's gonna get you everything? Some cheap entertainment For the price of honesty And up till now that wasn't a hard sell to me I put my phone on silent And try and cut out the noise Remembering in the quiet The things I used to enjoy But putting up boundaries seems to make it worse Wrapped around your finger till blood vessels burst And it hurts to feel Like all I do is annoy you And it's hard and it's hardly the end of the road But I can't let go just yet And you know it, I've told you, it's bold of you To ask me to stay attached It's just favors for favors And a spiderweb of strings Do you only want a man Who's gonna get you everything? Some cheap entertainment For the price of honesty And up till now that wasn't a hard sell to me It was what you wanted And now it's what I need I used to come when you called I used to follow your lead You said you felt too exhausted That you wanted to be free It was what you wanted Now it's what I need
