What we want and need
We differently perceive

I want you, but you don't need me
Hardly even want, cold reality
But giving up is not my mentality

Finishing what I started, quit not in my vocabulary
Persistence and commitment it's what I do
For the things that I do are not for you
For you it's a show and for me it's a game
To play it well for me, just to get you? What a shame.

What we need we cast aside for menial possessions
When wanting possesses us we lose our directions
Too stubborn to stop and ask on the road
I wish I could welcome you to my humble abode
