You Know What I Need
Pnau Lyrics

When we only cared about the fall
When we were only concerned with the risks and consequences

There was no way to know that we would give in now
We couldn't have predicted that we would surrender to our feelings at this moment

Too early to stay worried 'bout us all
It's too soon to be concerned about the outcome of our relationship

Before we knew what we were both about
Before we understood each other's true intentions and personalities

And now we're stuck in holdin', everything is frozen
Now we are trapped and unable to progress, everything seems stagnant

We're fakin' safe and sound (yeah, yeah, yeah)
We are pretending to be secure and content in this situation

And I can't keep pickin' up each time you call
I can't constantly answer every time you reach out

If everything I say just tears us down
If my words only serve to damage our relationship

I'm learnin', baby, if we keep on burnin'
I'm realizing, darling, that if we continue on this path of passion

No, I can't leave you, the world will keep on turnin'
No, I can't leave you, life will continue to move forward

But I'm thinkin' lately, what's so concernin'?
But I've been thinking lately, what is really causing us worry?

Soon as I leave you, I just keep on hurtin'
As soon as I walk away from you, I continue to feel pain

And once we're off the tracks
And once we deviate from our usual path

It falls apart too fast
Our relationship quickly crumbles

And we've been scared too long, never really lasts
And our fear has been persistent for too long, our relationship never truly endures

And once I get to thinkin', it all keeps comin' back, yeah, yeah
And once I start reflecting, all our issues resurface repeatedly

Oh, God, baby, let's not lie
Oh, my love, let's be honest with each other

You know you don't die for me (why not?)
You know you wouldn't sacrifice yourself for me (why not?)

Run out in the dead of night
Escape in the darkness

Baby, don't you lie to me (my God)
Darling, please don't deceive me (my goodness)

Oh, God, baby let's not lie
Oh, my love, let's be truthful

You know don't die for me (be honest)
You know you wouldn't sacrifice yourself for me (be sincere)

Just shut up, be honest, 'cause
Just be quiet and tell the truth, because

Before we run out of time, we gotta get it tonight
Before we lose the opportunity, we need to make it happen tonight

Before we leave it behind, we gotta get it alright
Before we move on from this, we need to resolve everything

Wait 'til after party, then we say our goodbyes
Let's wait until the party is over, then we part ways

Got my hands on your body and it's feelin' alright
I have physical contact with your body and it feels good

But I don't want it
But I don't desire it anymore

You're all that I want
You are everything I desire

You're all that I need
You are everything I require

And if it hurts me then
And if it causes me pain

I don't want it (I don't want it anymore)
I no longer desire it
