Give Me Something

Wake up to the sound of your innocence going
I didn't take it, you took it from yourself
You need to realize, sweetie, you live in a cold world
and there's no one to protect you from it, and no one to protect you from yourself

So give me something, love
or give me something I can hold on to
but don't give me yourself
because I need something you wouldn't give to somebody else

When you were open for that while I loved you the best
you just don't need to drink to escape, you'll use someone else
We're all fucked up in so many ways
but if you told me how I was fucked up, I'd change that day
(for you)

So give me something, love
or give me something I can hold on to
but don't give me yourself
because I need something you wouldn't give to somebody else

I used to think I wrote these words down to clear you from my head
but now I know I write them down to keep you there

So give me something, love
or give me something I can hold on to
but don't give me yourself
because I need something you wouldn't give to somebody else
