Dependence Lyrics by Northshore

For What It’s Worth

2019

[Verse 1]
Always on my mind
My eyes are sunk and tired
I need a little fix to pull me out of this

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, won’t you come a little closer?
I’m trying to be a better person for you
All these thoughts in my head like a book that’s unread
Is something I’m not used to

[Chorus]
I’m dying to feel weightless
Come on take my feet off the ground
Let’s forget for a second that tomorrow
I’ll come crashing down
I want it neat and I want it fast
I’m burning out I wasn’t built to last
Hold me close and tell me a lie
Like everything will be alright

[Verse 2]
I notice you from across the room
You know it’s wrong, but you need it too
Why don’t you come over? We can make a few mistakes
You make the noise in my head go away
It’s just for one night, no, you can’t stay
Why do I love the thing that’s killing me?
Forever lost in dependency

[Pre-Chorus]
Just give me something to take home
Because I’m too damn scared to be alone

[Chorus]
I’m dying to feel weightless
Come on take my feet off the ground
Let’s forget for a second that tomorrow
I’ll come crashing down
I want it neat and I want it fast
I’m burning out I wasn’t built to last
Hold me close and tell me a lie
Like everything will be alright

[Bridge]
I don’t expect you to understand
I just need you to talk me down
When I’m lost inside my head
You’re the one who brings me home again
I don’t expect you to understand
I just need you to talk me down
When I’m lost inside my head
You’re the one who brings me home
I don’t expect you to understand
I just need you to hold me down
I don’t expect you to understand
I just need you to hold me down
When I’m lost inside my head
You’re the one who brings me home

[Outro]
I don’t expect you to understand
I just need you to hold me down
