Lyrics
I never wanted to be dependent on someone

just in case they ever left

I don’t know how I would find the strength to carry on

If I was put to the test

I didn’t want to trust you

cause I didn’t want you to break it

When you started to leave me

I just knew that I could not take it

But I opened up to you

I let you see all my darkest sides

I spilled it all out for you

and then I started getting weird vibes

The closer I got to you

the more I needed you

You were an addiction

I never wanted to be dependent on someone

just in case they ever left

I don’t know how I would find the strength to carry on

If I was put to the test

When we touched I felt a rush

but soon that flame started to flicker

you lost all interest in me

I wish that I did something quicker

The closer I got to you

the more I needed you

You were an addiction

I never wanted to be dependent on someone

just in case they ever left

I don’t know how I would find the strength to carry on

If I was put to the test

I never wanted to be dependent on someone

just in case they ever left

But now you’re gone

And I am dependent on you

You’re gone

And I am dependent on you

You’re gone

And I am dependent on you

I never wanted to be dependent on someone

just in case they ever left

I don’t know how I would find the strength to carry on

If I was put to the test

I never wanted to be dependent on someone

just in case they ever left

But now you’re gone

And I am dependent on you
