Joshua Bassett - Set Me Free (Lyrics)

[Verse 1]

I don't know what I did to deserve all of this

I don't wanna be rude or on the defensive

But I've been goin' through it too

And I know you feel used, I know you've been hurt

Anything I did to make you feel worse

I'd take it all back if I could

[Pre-Chorus]

And nothin' I say will ease the pain

But why must I hurt for you to feel okay?

[Chorus]

You don't get to take all of me (Set me free)

And I don't need your apology (Let me be)

I don't recognize you, not anymore

You're not the love that I fell for

You don't get to take all of me (Set me free)

[Verse 2]

I've been runnin' away, I've been facin' my fears

Tell my mom I'm okay while I'm holdin' back tears

It's been a fuckin' year

And I've been doin' my time, I've been workin' on me

Wasn't sure I'd survive, never felt so weak

And nothin' really seemed to help it

[Pre-Chorus]

And nothin' I say will ease the pain

But why do I have to hurt for you to feel okay?

[Chorus]

You don't get to take all of me (Set me free)

And I don't need your apology (Let me be)

I don't recognize you, not anymore

You're not the love that I fell for

You don't get to take all of me (Set me free)

[Bridge]

I hope you know that I still care about you dearly

But I've gotta lock the door and throw away the key

And I hope you know that I still care about you, darlin'

I won't ever let you hurt me how you hurt me

Again, ever again

[Chorus]

You don't get to take all of me (Set me free)

And I don't need your apology (Let me be)

I don't recognize you, not anymore

You're not the love that I fell for

You don't get to take all of me (Set me free)

You don't get to take all of me (Set me free)

[Outro]

You don't get to take all of me

Set me free
