lyrics

I’m unavailable
‘Less it’s dark and I got nowhere to go
Heart unattainable
Give you just enough to make you want more

I know what I want, I know what I need
I know you’re none of those things
When my mind gets loud, my guard comes down
That’s when I let you in

Tell you don’t get too close to me
Till I’m wine drunk and lonely
At 2 am hitting your phone, Oh
Say I don’t want a relationship
But I’m just a hypocrite
Who can’t handle being alone
I can’t handle being alone
But I just wanna be alone

It’s inexcusable
The way I pull you in just to push you out
But baby, you should know
It’s not about you, I can’t help myself

I know what I want, I know what I need
I’m sorry I led you to believe
This could more than just momentary lust
But my loving’s temporary

Tell you don’t get too close to me
Till I’m wine drunk and lonely
At 2 am hitting your phone, Oh
Say I don’t want a relationship
But I’m just a hypocrite
Who can’t handle being alone
I can’t handle being alone
But I just wanna be alone

You think I’m playing you, manipulating you
But the truth is I’m the one I’m lying to
You think I’m playing you, manipulating you
But the truth is I’m the only one I’m lying to, oh
Tell you don’t get too close to me
Till I’m fucked up and lonely
At 2 am hitting your phone, Oh
Say I don’t want a relationship
But I’m just a hypocrite
Who can’t handle being alone
I can’t handle being alone
I just wanna be alone
I’m trying to learn to be alone
