Everything That You Need
Adam Richman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Still writing songs
Like I'm dealing with you still every day
A myth to say
I've become strong
My strength is always kissed away
The thought of our past lingers through our lives
Every star stands out like the scars we bare to survive
I swear I shouldn't say it
But fine now
Admitting that it always comes back to you
And getting over where we left off wouldn't do
I'd spend these years wondering
Who I'm meant to be
It's not to say that you change me
But I guess that that's a given
If you were around, all things forgiven
I'd give you everything that you need
Uncertainty is nothing next
To romantic tendencies and fallacies
Faking myself out once again
Could make real sense of the shit we've seen
I'm pretty damn scared if you come around
We might have to revisit the sights and sounds
Of a summer spent pissing away the time we still haven't found

Despite trying to move on and gain strength, he acknowledges that a part of him is still connected to this person who continues to haunt him. The lyrics are introspective and reveal a vulnerability and honesty that is refreshing. Richman admits that he is not yet grown up, as he continues to write songs that deal with the memories of his past love. He acknowledges that he has not become stronger and that his strength is always kissed away, suggesting that his love for this person weakens him.
There is a sense of regret and hesitation in the lyrics as Richman contemplates the idea of moving on from his past love. He suggests that getting over where they left off would not be enough as he would spend years wondering about who he is meant to be. He reveals that while his past love might not have changed him, they were certainly influential in his life. Richman admits that he would forgive everything if his past love were to return, and that he would give them everything they need. The uncertainty of the future seems easier to deal with than the uncertainty of this past love.
Overall, "Everything You Need" is a soul-baring song that speaks to the complicated nature of relationships and the difficulty in moving on from them. Richman's lyrical style is honest and emotive, and the melody of the song is haunting, which adds to the overall feeling of vulnerability in the song.
