[Intro]
(Ooh-oh-oh)
Why do I give so much?
(Ooh-oh-oh)
And get so little?
Yeah...
[Verse 1]
Always on call, always show up
Giving my all till the tank runs up
Everybody needs me, everybody takes
Smile on my face while my heart just breaks
Stayed up late fixing everybody's mess
Put myself last, never second-guessed
Ran so fast tryna earn my place
Lost myself in the process
Yeah
I kept pouring from an empty cup
Wondering why it was never enough
[Pre-Chorus]
I gave my time
I gave my trust
Thought if I loved enough
Love would find me back
But it never does
[Chorus / Drop]
No more waiting
No more chasing
No more running after somebody
No more changing
No more breaking
Trying to be what everybody needs
If I need love
If I need hope
If I need somebody holding on
I'll find it in me
I'll find it in me
It was in me all along
(Ooh-oh-oh)
All along
[Verse 2]
Call me crazy, call me loyal
Built my heart like it was royal
Gave away pieces every day
Till there was nothing left to save
Everybody got the best of me
Got so good at self-neglecting me
Looking for worth in somebody's eyes
While mine were passing me by
Yeah
Every letdown hit like a wave
Still I kept trying to be the one they saved
[Pre-Chorus]
I got tired
Of carrying ghosts
Tired of loving people
Who loved me the least
[Chorus / Drop]
No more waiting
No more chasing
No more running after somebody
No more changing
No more breaking
Trying to be what everybody needs
If I need love
If I need hope
If I need somebody holding on
I'll find it in me
I'll find it in me
It was in me all along
[Bridge]
Maybe I was searching
In the wrong direction
Looking for healing
Looking for redemption
Maybe the answer
Wasn't in their hands
Maybe the person I needed
Was who I am
(Who I am)
Who I am
[Final Chorus]
No more waiting
No more wishing
For somebody else to rescue me
No more hiding
No more missing
Everything I used to be
If I need light
If I need faith
If I need somewhere to belong
I'll find it in me
I'll find it in me
It was in me all along
(Ooh-oh-oh)
All along
(Ooh-oh-oh)
It was in me all along
[Outro]
Why do I give so much?
And get so little?
Now I know
I don't need to
