Love Me Like You Used To
You Me At Six · Cavalier Youth [2014]
And at the start, I was wishing I could be anything you'd want.
I've been living with strangers here that haunt my thoughts.
Nice guys finish last, I take part in that.
Can't change it now, running straight from my past.
We walk the same streets, but have different views.
You see change, I see cavalier youth
So love me like you used to
When I couldn't lose you
Why is it goodbye?
And at the end of this point,
On my floors, were so much waste.
You have brought up my self-esteem just to suck it out of me.
I know I'm broken, but I'm closer to the edge.
If you have enemies, then I have friends.
I hope that I will see you there.
I hope I will see you there.
So love me like you used to
When I couldn't lose you
Why is it goodbye?
Just love me like you need me
Oh just can't you need me?
Why, why can now the things that matter most,
the things I can't decide, if I want.
So this time I will realign
This time I will sacrifice
Whatever that it takes
Whatever that it takes
So love me like you used to
When I couldn't lose you
Why, why?
Just love me
Just love me
Just love me
