Now: The Chasing Game Lyrics by Alenei

2024

[Verse 1]
I’ve been looking for mistakes
So I could rip it off before it breaks
Me and my faults are in dispute
For once to be more dissolute
They know I’m cut out to be friends
No pre-punched lines to frame romance
I have never felt the certainty
That it’d be possible to fall for me

[Chorus]
The attention that I need
It is myself that I compete
I want love, I want desire
Want to fly faster, to fly higher
Don’t want to play a chasing game
Succeed to feel like I restrained
For once I want to be the prize
Looked at with fire in their eyes

[Verse 2]
Should I take time to be alone
To know myself when I’m my own
Otherwise I’ll try to be
What I would think you want to see
My urge for harmony’s afraid
That I will break from one debate
I’ll feel content, I won’t feel haunted
Cause I’m so used to feel not wanted

[Chorus]
The attention that I need
It is myself that I compete
I want love, I want desire
Want to fly faster, to fly higher
Don’t want to play a chasing game
Succeed to feel like I restrained
For once I want to be the prize
Looked at with fire in their eyes

[Bridge]
I apologise and I’ll resign
Collect my grudges
I’ll forgive but I won’t fix
I’ll make adjustments
Because I want love
Want your time to be worthwhile
So I will do anything to see your smile

[Chorus]
The attention that I need
It is myself that I compete
I want love, I want desire
Want to fly faster, to fly higher
Don’t want to play a chasing game
Succeed to feel like I restrained
For once I want to be the prize
Looked at with fire in their eyes


Part II

[Verse 1]
Look, it’s a game that we both played
But for me it’s getting late
Started to feel my ego desecrated
Like my heart was baited
It was fun, but now that’s over
Because we never got quiet closer
And I played this shit before
I don’t want pining I want more

[Chorus]
And that is where I start to run
I need those spotlights on
Always aligned to satisfy
But now I want some fun
And you’re so sweet
Romantic with your candle light
But I need it bright
And I need it right
NOW
N-O double U‘ll (W)
Think of the chance that you blew

[Verse 2]
I think I’m just not what you need
It’s my own fault when I mislead
You wait to overstep no boundaries
Won’t you push me to the ground, please
I made my move you don’t reject it
But I was starting to feel desperate
And I’ve seen this shit before
I’m not the one you will ignore

[Chorus]
And that is where I start to run
I need those spotlights on
Always aligned to satisfy
But now I want some fun
And you’re so sweet
Romantic with your candle light
But I need it bright
And I need it right
NOW
N-O double U‘ll (W)
Think of the chance that you blew

[Bridge]
I cried the whole night
Knowing that you never listened right
That day you shifted all your focus
On someone else, I felt so hopeless
I can’t count the times I mentioned
That all I need I some attention (Geez, calm down)

[Chorus]
And that is where I start to run
I need those spotlights on
Always aligned to satisfy
But now I want some fun
And you’re so sweet
Romantic with your candle light
But I need it bright
And I need it right
NOW
N-O double U‘ll (W)
Think of the chance that you blew
