Pitted - The Fontaines

Hopes are rising 'til they fall back down

It’s like they breathe

I thought you wanted me, I was wrong

You don’t know who you need

Touch me, you take me by surprise

‘cause you’re so hard to read

We keep talking 'til our throats run dry

You’re a troubled man

I was hoping you would stay the night

But you can’t

Told me all your dirty worth

Never wanted more from me

Than to show me, show me where you hurt

‘cause you knew I’d believe

Gotta lose your temper

'til you can’t remember

Anything you’re telling me

We were never lovers

Underneath the covers

But you’re still looking to leave

When I could be who you need

I heard you singing in your room alone

A song you wish you wrote

You’re always saying that you’re on your own

So I’ll go

Shy little drummer

He’s a little tougher

Than he’d really like to be

Needs another mother

I found him in the gutter

Too afraid of who he needs

Crying on my shoulder

Move a little closer

You aren’t who you wanna be

I got a look at you for free

I got a look at you for free

I’ll be who you really need
