could've been

Cut off my hair
Couldn't wash my hands of you
Take care of myself
The way you always wanted me to
I don't waste my time in shallow conversation
Still eternally searching for your validation

I don't wanna have to need it
But right now i'm barely sleeping
Got no clarity
Is it something wrong with me
Were you always gonna leave?
Were you always gonna leave?

I could've been whoever you wanted me to
(ooo)
Would've gone wherever you asked me to
(ooo)
Tried to build myself around you
The moment you found me
Even still, i hope you're happy
I could've been whoever you wanted me to

I hate myself
For waiting around for you
I still hold your pain
Keep it safe and sound for you
Said I was everything, somehow you cut it clean
Who fucking does that?
For you I stay Naive, every part of me
Prays that you'll come back

I don't wanna have to need it
But right now i'm barely sleeping
Got no clarity
Is it something wrong with me
Were you always gonna leave?
Were you always gonna leave?

I could've been whoever you wanted me to
(ooo)
Would've gone wherever you asked me to
(ooo)
I could've been whoever you wanted me to
(ooo)
Would've gone wherever you asked me to
(could've been, could've been)
Tried to build myself around you
The moment you found me
Even still, i hope you're happy
I could've been whoever you wanted me to
