Don't get too close to me
I was a baby when I bought the dream they sold to me
I'm 27 and now I'm devoted hopelessly
I'm really focused on being this person I feel like I'm supposed to be
So my priorities were move to Jozi
And make some sense of it
And even though I'm really sensitive
Discomfort is who I actually came to start a friendship with
Nobody else
I mean, I came here with nobody else
Me and myself
But I'm here now
Sitting across you.
We're holding hands, we're falling in love
I should've stopped you
'Cause I'm remembering the brief
And how I'm better off alone
But you gave me the sweetest and softest kiss I've ever known
And suddenly life seems normal when you're not doing it alone
And we decided we want this
And maybe this could be our home
A work in progress, something I started building on my own
And it's not done but
Make yourself at home, yeah
It's not that I didn't need it
It's just that I didn't need it right now
I started feeling depleted
And I couldn't be who you needed right now
It's not that I didn't need it
It's just that I didn't need it
I started feeling depleted
Baby you've found yourself passionate man
The only problem is
The passion he has?
Also makes him a workaholic and it's
Really hard to stop it once you've started
Especially now that you've gotta try and double what's in your wallet
But that's not a problem
Just means more time in the office
More focus on profits
Less time for distra-
But if me working after 5 makes you doubt my attraction
Then I don't know what to tell you
'Cause I don't understand it
I started doing it for us
So we don't have to panic
And yeah, it's dramatic
I changed that brief up pretty quick
'Cause I had to accept it
But people-pleasing left my feelings neglected
And over time, it started building resentment
'Cause see the plan was spend my life with you
But I had to let go of us
Just to remind myself what I can do
And I know that didn't sit right with you
Left you feeling like the carpet was pulled from under you
I'm really sorry but
It's not that I didn't need it
It's just that I didn't need it right now
I started feeling depleted
And I couldn't be who you needed right now
It's not that I didn't need it
It's just that I didn't need it
I started feeling depleted
And I couldn't be who you needed
It's not that I didn't
