Witt Lowry - Dinner for Two lyrics

You see, you're just a waste of time
Hidden behind a pretty face
And if I was making you mine
How much of my heart are you gon' break?
I'm stumblin' in it and out of all
This love to find my way
I'm sick of you breakin' me down
Now all I've found is empty space
And I'm searchin', I'm
Hurtin', I'm workin'
I'm tryna prove to y'all that I'm worth it
I'm here to show you
Music can be so much deeper than surface
I'm nervous, the verses I'm spittin' for
Y'all never sound perfect
I'm learnin' that workin' a nine-to-five
Was never my purpose, i'm certain
How can you tell me that
I stand above the rest?
That would mean that I'd be standing
On the guy you choose next


See, I would wait, now it's too late
You walked away from the best
It's up to you to wear the weight
Of that regret like a vest and it's hard
I'm stuck here tryin' to follow
Up my kindest regards
I've been staring at this fuckin'
Blank page for twenty-four hours
I'm goin' crazy
Or maybe that's what they made me
Or maybe I'm sick of fake
See I was dumb to think that
One girl could save… me
I should be saving myself
I can barely afford my rent
That got me questioning wealth
My sister's really really sick
That got me questioning health
I wanna save the world, but
Couldn't save her from herself, damn
Now she's laid up in the ICU
That made me realize all the fake
Shit that I see through
That made me realize all the power
In an "I love you" we would pray everyday
Hopin' that you came to
We've come through the trenches
I'm set on spreading a message
I'm staring up at the sky and
I'm praying for my ascension
I'm countin' all of my blessings
You're countin' all of your mentions
See, focus on what you love, not
This drug we're calling attention
That's real so who's fuckin' with me?

So tell me what I am right now (right now)
Now tell me what I've got to lose
(got to lose)
You try your best at breakin' me down
(breakin' me down)
Well, you ain't never been
In my shoes, shoes, shoes
I'm tired of bein' used, used, used
So take me as I am, I don't wanna lose
'Cause you know that if I'm eating
Y'all are eating too
This is dinner… for two

See, I've been stuck
Searchin' for motivation
Probably in all the wrong places
Like girls, girls, girls, and girls, you see
I'm searchin' in basic
I want someone to build with me
Not just someone to take it
I want someone to feel with me
Not just someone to fake it
I'm over this fake shit
Still worried sick if I'll make it
Now everybody has a dream, see
I'm just willing to chase it
Let's take a look around your cubicle
See talent that's wasted
This is your life, it's your life
So don't just copy and paste it
Now, open your mind, but not your
Legs, give 'em the mind, but not the head
This is your story
You decide how it's gon' finally be read
And these are lyrics that I think
About late night in my bed
If I never pursue my passion
Then I'm already dead
So when they try to break us down
That's when we stand up
We were the kids who
Weren't supposed to win
So they can't stand us
I'm standin' on the stage, lights glarin'
People starin' with their hands up
They told me I could never be the man
And now I am what?
So who's fuckin' with me?

So tell me what I am right now (right now)
Now tell me what I've got to lose
(got to lose)
You try your best at breakin' me down
(breakin' me down)
Well, you ain't never been
In my shoes, shoes, shoes
I'm tired of bein' used, used, used
So take me as I am, I don't wanna lose
'Cause you know that if I'm eating
Y'all are eating too
This is dinner… for two
Tell me what I am right now (right now)
Now tell me what I've got to lose
(got to lose)
You try your best at breakin' me down
(breakin' me down)
Well, you ain't never been
In my shoes, shoes, shoes
I'm tired of bein' used, used, used
So take me as I am, I don't wanna lose
'Cause you know that if I'm eating
Y'all are eating too
This is dinner… for two
