Lyrics Maisie Peters – Use Me
Text:
There’s a lot of different ways that I can be
And I can change and start all over
I can say one thing, and then I’ll take it back and count to ten
And say it better
Yes, change the lines I say
Yeah, I can be anyone if that means I become the one you want to stay
I never thought that this would be the last time
Or that you could cut me lose
Coz I never thought that I would suddenly
Become the one you didn’t choose
And I can change my hair and change my words but I can’t change
How bad this hurts
I can’t change the way my eyes won’t shut
They gave up when you gave up us
But I can’t care about anything
If I can’t care about you
I can’t accept this silence
I won’t accept we lose
And you can’t knock me breathless
And then find somebody else whose breath is new
Babe, you can use me
If you want to
I never thought I’d be the girl who played it all
And layed out all her cards
And I never thought I’d be the sort
To give up everything because he asked
But that was before I knew
Nothing felt as whole as having you
And though I’m just your option three
When she’s not around
I’m what you need
Coz I can’t care about anything
If I can’t care about you
I can’t accept this silence
I won’t accept we lose
And you can’t knock me breathless
And then find somebody else whose breath is new
Babe, you can use me
If you want to
Coz I gave up oxygen and, babe, I grew thicker skin
I adapted to be what you need
And you think I’m confident, but I overcompensate
For how much you don’t see
So I pack a backpack and say «I won’t look back»
That I deserve I’m done
But I can’t pretend, I’ll come back round again
Coz a little is better than none
Coz I can’t care about anything
If I can’t care about you
I can’t accept this silence
I won’t accept we lose
And you can’t knock me breathless
And then find somebody else whose breath is new (whose breath is new)
Coz I can’t care about anything
If I can’t care about you
I can’t accept this silence
I won’t accept we lose
And you can’t knock me breathless
And then find somebody else whose breath is new
Babe, you can use me
If you want to
