Only When You Need It

Written by me & my friend


Only When You Need It

You used to be so close to me, but this was then
Now you’re somewhere far away
Everything I ever felt for you is gone
And you know I never wanted for us to end this way
But it doesn’t matter anymore
Because this very instant, I evened the score

-Chorus-
Now why? Why would I care if you don’t?
Why would I ask you to be there when I know you won’t?
You come back again and again, but only when you need it
Only when you need it, everything was a scam
A show that you put on, only when you need it
Just so I can’t be who I am

You came to me and you told me I have a chance
What if I don’t want it now?
I threw it back to you with that second glance
Cause I know that all you wanted was to turn me around
But you cannot do that anymore
Because this very instant, I evened the score

-Chorus-
Now why? Why would I care if you don’t?
Why would I ask you to be there when I know you won’t?
You come back again and again, but only when you need it
Only when you need it, everything was a scam
A show that you put on, only when you need it
Just so I can’t be who I am

-Bridge-
Leave me alone! I don’t care about you now
Like you didn’t care then
You can say anything, you can make any vow
Ill never believe it again

-Chorus-
Now why? Why would I care if you don’t?
Why would I ask you to be there when I know you won’t?
You come back again and again, but only when you need it
Only when you need it, everything was a scam
A show that you put on, only when you need it
Just so I can’t be who I am

Angel I wanted to comment on this yesterday but I got kinda twisted up, I'm sure you can understand. I think this is great ... to be honest, not quite your best but you've set such a high standard for yourself that it's impossible to max everything you do .. and I can see that there was a big purpose for this, and the message is 100% rock-solid. That's what really counts, right? Great work!
