One, two, one, two, one, two   You think I was hurting, but damn I wasn't   I was looking for all of the pain through your eyes   Don't do it   Don't do it to me   Cause you know I need someone in my life   Like you, oh no   Why do we always need someone else   To lean up on and get the other half done for ya   Baby I don't need you   I don't need you honey   But I need you      PRECHORUS   Life, it's my preference, and I choose love   Because I trust in you   Though your decadence shows me the light   Sometimes it's just too tight   I'm contemplating just what to do   I invest my soul but I gotta change my truth      CHORUS   Oh, just 'cause he says he loves you   Doesn't mean that he do   Just 'cause he says he needs you   Doesn't mean that it's true   You know you really don't love him   You know he really don't care   To him you're just another woman   To you he's another affair      Over, and over again   I attempted to pretend, there's a means   Before we end, oh no   Shattered pieces of my heart   Mended though they fall apart   I don't need the questions on   Why I do what I do   'Cause I'm cold in every sense of the word   And you've been too   Take a slice of your strife   And multiply by two   When you look at me   'Cause that's the way I'm looking at you      PRECHORUS      Just 'cause he says he loves you   Doesn't mean that he do   Just 'cause he says he needs you   Doesn't mean that it's true   (x 4)      CHORUS x3
