Even if we both break down tonight And you say you hate me, and we go to bed angry I know everything will be alright I'll be here waiting, I promise I'm changing I just need A little time to show you I'm worth it I know that I can be a difficult person I'm a stress case, drive you up the wall when I'm workin' Actually, I'm probably worse when I'm not, you don't deserve it Make you nervous 'cause you know I'ma break soon Every time I do, I say somethin' that hurts you Actin' like I'm gone, but we both in the same room I don't like to be wrong, which I know you relate to And I know I make you feel like you're at the end of your rope That's when I look at you and tell you I'd be better alone Just the pride talkin', isn't it? 'Cause both of us know I'm the definition of "wreck" if you look into my soul Comes out the most when I feel I'm in a vulnerable place Made a lot of mistakes I wish I knew how to erase When I'm afraid, might get distant and I push you away But no matter the case, I'ma do whatever it takes even if Even if we both break down tonight And you say you hate me, and we go to bed angry I know everything will be alright I'll be here waiting, I promise I'm changing I just need Time (oh) I, I need time (oh, oh) I just need time (oh) I, I need time (oh) Time (oh), time (oh) Yeah, way before I bought you the ring We were fighting back and forth like you were wearin' the thing Two passionate people not afraid to say what they think Lead to passionate conversation when it's hard to agree You know me well, sittin' on the edge of my seat Lookin' at life, overanalyzin' everything Always depressed, tryna find a better version of me Searching for somethin' I know's prolly right in front of my feet Stubborn as me? Maybe not, but you're close to it Got a lot of issues, I'm tryin' to work through 'em Going to therapy for you's somethin' that's worth doin' When I know you been there for me through all of my worst moments And I know it hurts knowing that I carry this weight on my chest Making it difficult for me to open up and connect Lot of regrets, I apologize for all of the stress That's not what I meant to do, you know I love you to death even if Even if we both break down tonight And you say you hate me, and we go to bed angry I know everything will be alright I'll be here waiting, I promise I'm changing I just need Time (oh) I, I need time (oh, oh) I just need time (oh) I, I need time (oh) Time (oh), time (oh) I just need time (oh) I, I need time (oh, oh) I just need time (oh) I, I need time (oh) Time (oh), time (oh)
