All You Needed

V1:

Got lost in the world inside my head

Blind to the storms you were facing

On the other side of our bed

The waves came rolling, thunder booming

Out on a Friday, left you drinking alone

Barely caught the last train home

2 am found you curled in a ball

Realized then that I'd let you fall

My fault for seeing it too late

Chorus:

You were breaking and I couldn't see it

Shifted my focus more than I'd like to admit

Figured you were doing fine, not toeing the line

When you were hanging over the edge

While I failed to uphold my pledge

To be there for you the way you were for me

Cuz you were breaking and I couldn't see it

Now I'm sorry I couldn't be all you needed

V2:

I can't blame you for leaving

The way I was underachieving

Left you out in the cold

Was supposed to be the one you could hold

But now I'm the one who let you fold

All i ever wanted was to be the one you needed

But when you needed me

I was nowhere to be seen

Chorus:

You were breaking and I couldn't see it

Shifted my focus more than I'd like to admit

Figured you were doing fine, not toeing the line

When you were hanging over the edge

While I failed to uphold my pledge

To be there for you the way you were for me

Cuz you were breaking and I couldn't see it

Now I'm sorry I couldn't be all you needed

Bridge:

All you needed was a rock

All you needed was to be seen

All you needed was me, to be, right by your side

All you needed was what I couldn't be

Chorus:

You were breaking and I couldn't see it

Shifted my focus more than I'd like to admit

Figured you were doing fine, not toeing the line

When you were hanging over the edge

While I failed to uphold my pledge

To be there for you the way you were for me

Cuz you were breaking and I couldn't see it

Now I'm sorry I couldn't be all you needed
