This Way - Hana Pestle

I’m not drowning

I don’t need your hand to save me

I’m not sorry

I don’t need your touch to change me

And I, I don’t need to know just where I am

And you don’t need to know

It’s never enough

It’s too much

It shouldn’t be this way

The more that you give

The more I give away

I know I shouldn’t be this way

So forgive me if my words don’t fit your meaning

I’m not guilty but your crime is mine for keeping

And I don’t need to know just where I am

And you don’t need to know

It’s never enough

It’s too much

It shouldn’t be this way

The closer you get

The more I feel the pain

I know it shouldn’t be this way

And I know I’m on my own

And I know I’m all alone

And I don’t need to know just where I am

And you don’t need to know

It’s never enough

It’s too much

It shouldn’t be this way

You tighten your grip

And my hand slips away

It shouldn’t be this way

It’s never enough

It’s too much

It shouldn’t be this way
