I Got You
Maddie Jay Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Locked myself in my room for a week
So I could get myself back to me (oh)
Oh my god, I need a little bit of sleep

And I start to get sick of myself (oh)
But I still don't wanna see anybody else
Oh my god, I need a little bit of peace
Well sometimes I wake up sad
I got tears on my pillow but nothings that bad
I can't control these anxieties
And my friends start to get so fed up with me

But I got you
I'm so lucky I got you
No matter what you'll see it through
When I got nothin' I got you

Paler than I've ever been before
From spending my days face down on the floor
Oh my god, what's this thing inside of me?

Well sometimes I wake up sad
I got tears on my pillow but nothings that bad
I can't control these anxieties
And my friends start to get so fed up with me

But I got you
I'm so lucky I got you
No matter what you'll see it through
When I got nothin' I got you (got you)

'Cause I got you
I'm so lucky I got you
No matter what you'll see it through
When I got nothin' I got you (got you)

But I got you
I'm so lucky I got you




No matter what you'll see it through
When I got nothin' I got you (got you)
