What I Don't Need Lyrics

Here we go again

Watching my reputation go up in flames

I am no stranger to this shame

You held my hand

You took away my sins

You told me I'm only human

That I was a victim of their games

You tried to save me

Save me save me from myself

You tried to change me change me

Into something else

Well I don't need it

I don't need it

I don't need it anymore

I don't need

No knight on a white horse

I don't need no guru

No I don't need you anymore

I don't need

No man to tell me what is right

I don't need your insight

No I don't need that anymore

I just need the truth

I just need the truth

It don't come from you

Here we go again

Another night of fighting

Talking in circles

I'm tired and weary

So worn down

But the only way to keep you in my life

Is just admit that I've been wrong

You say "It's not so black and white"

But you still blame me

You blame me

Blame me for what's wrong

Coming down hard on me

You're so hard on me

When I won't play along

Well I don't need it

I don't need it

I don't need it anymore

I don't need

No knight on a white horse

I don't need no guru

No I don't need you anymore

I don't need

Your moral authority

I don't need your scrutiny

No I don't need that anymore

I just need the truth

I just need the truth

It don't come from you

And it's a hard pill to take

You didn't love me

For the way that I am

I was your free bird in a cage

Said I'd fly too close to the sun

And you don't wanna be the one

To stick around

And watch me go up in flames

Well burn baby burn

Watch me bursting into flames

I'm still living and thriving

Falling from your grace

'Cuz I don't need ya

I don't need ya

I don't need ya anymore

I don't need

No knight on a white horse

I don't need no guru

No I don't need you anymore

I don't need

Your thoughts or your concerns

I'll keep on burning

And I burn like the sun

'Cuz I know the truth

I know the truth
