I Want You, But I Don't Need You
I like you, and I'd like you to like me to like you
But I don't need you
Don't need you to need me to like you
Because if you didn't like me
I would still like you, you see
La la la
La la la
I lick you, and I like how you like how I lick you
But I don't need you
Don't need you to like me to lick you
If your pleasure turned into pain
I would still lick - for my personal gain
La la la
La la la
I fuck you, and I love how you love how I fuck you
But I don't fucking need you
Don't need you to need me to fuck you
If you need me to need you to fuck
That fucks everything up
La la la
La la la
I want you, and I want you to want me to want you
But I don't need you
Don't need you to need me to need you
That's just me
So take me or leave me
But please don't need me
Don't need me to need you to need me
Cos' we're here one minute, the next we're dead
So love me or leave me
But try not to need me
Enough said
I want you, but I don't need you
I love you, and I love how you love how I love you
But I don't need you
Don't need you to need me to love you
If your love turned into hate
Would my love have been a mistake?
I don't know
I don't know
So I'm gonna leave you
And I'd like you to leave me to leave you
But lover believe me, it isn't because I don't need you
(You know I don't need you)
All I wanted was to be wanted
But you're drowning me deep in your need to be needed
La la la
La la la
I want you, and I want you to want me to want you
But I don't need you
Don't need you to need me to need you
That's just me
So take me or leave me
But please don't need me
Don't need me to need you to need me
Cos' we're here one minute, the next we're dead
So love me or leave me
But try not to need me
Enough said
I want you, but I don't need you
But I don't need you
Don't need you to need me to like you
Because if you didn't like me
I would still like you, you see
La la la
La la la
I lick you, and I like how you like how I lick you
But I don't need you
Don't need you to like me to lick you
If your pleasure turned into pain
I would still lick - for my personal gain
La la la
La la la
I fuck you, and I love how you love how I fuck you
But I don't fucking need you
Don't need you to need me to fuck you
If you need me to need you to fuck
That fucks everything up
La la la
La la la
I want you, and I want you to want me to want you
But I don't need you
Don't need you to need me to need you
That's just me
So take me or leave me
But please don't need me
Don't need me to need you to need me
Cos' we're here one minute, the next we're dead
So love me or leave me
But try not to need me
Enough said
I want you, but I don't need you
I love you, and I love how you love how I love you
But I don't need you
Don't need you to need me to love you
If your love turned into hate
Would my love have been a mistake?
I don't know
I don't know
So I'm gonna leave you
And I'd like you to leave me to leave you
But lover believe me, it isn't because I don't need you
(You know I don't need you)
All I wanted was to be wanted
But you're drowning me deep in your need to be needed
La la la
La la la
I want you, and I want you to want me to want you
But I don't need you
Don't need you to need me to need you
That's just me
So take me or leave me
But please don't need me
Don't need me to need you to need me
Cos' we're here one minute, the next we're dead
So love me or leave me
But try not to need me
Enough said
I want you, but I don't need you
