Your Needs, My Needs

Noah Kahan

Stick Season (We'll All Be Here Forever), 2023, English

Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

Oh, well, who was I?
Who was I to watch you wilt?
You ain't gotta tell me what it means
Trace the outlines of your dreams
You'll always be a flower on my skin
And the pain that I am in
Mm
It's all the same
The losin' touch, the waiting game
Across that county line
I promised to be there this time
Alright?
You were a work of art
That's the hardest part
Howlin' like dogs in the light of the moon
Holdin' our breath after 132
You asked me why I wasn't saying a word
I'm naming the stars in the sky after you
I was a work of art
That's the hardest part
To spiral out, to try and float
To see a friend, to see a ghost
Bitter-brained, always drunk
Rail-thin, Zoloft
Subtle change, shorter days
Dead-eyed, dead weight
Your life, your dreams
Your mind, your needs
And my needs
And your needs, and my needs
I spiral out, try and float
You see a friend, see a ghost
To see a ghost, to see a ghost
To see a ghost
