Verse 1
I don’t need the lights, I don’t need the crowd
I’m tired of the noise, I just want the sound
Of a heart that’s open, words that stay true
Someone who’s real when the room’s just two
I’ve been runnin’ circles in a digital town
Where love’s just a word people throw around
I ain’t lookin’ perfect, I ain’t lookin’ gold
I just want a hand I can actually hold
Pre-Chorus
I don’t need forever promised fast
I just need something built to last
⸻
Chorus
I don’t want much, I don’t want thrills
I don’t need lies dressed up as feels
I don’t need perfect, I don’t need control
I just want something real for my soul
Something real, no disguise
Something real behind those eyes
If it’s honest, I’ll take the fall
I don’t want it all — just something real
⸻
Verse 2
I don’t need a picture worth a thousand likes
I need late-night talks that feel like life
Silence that’s safe, truth that’s slow
Someone who stays when the highs get low
I’ve learned the hard way what love ain’t
It’s not convenience, it’s not pretend
So if you’re guarded, I get it too
I’m just askin’ for the truth from you
⸻
Pre-Chorus
I don’t need fireworks in the dark
I just need a steady spark
⸻
Chorus
I don’t want much, I don’t want thrills
I don’t need lies dressed up as feels
I don’t need perfect, I don’t need control
I just want something real for my soul
Something real, no disguise
Something real behind those eyes
If it’s honest, I’ll take the fall
I don’t want it all — just something real
⸻
Bridge
If it’s fragile, we’ll be careful
If it’s broken, we’ll be slow
I’d rather have the truth that hurts
Than a love I’ll never know
⸻
Final Chorus (Soft Lift)
I don’t want much, just open hands
A little faith, a little chance
No more runnin’, no more shields
I just want something real
