lyrics

Do you think you protect me?
Because I remember
Long nights and
Wandering eyes and
Never feeling safe until I got home in my bed

Do you think you protect me
Cause I remember you saying hop on in
I'll give you a ride and then I never get to my own bed
And you think you were chivalrous

It's sort of like that first time
You see an old friend and you never even think
Cause what kind of person even thinks that way
Closed doors closed shades
Just get her in a place where it’s hard to run away

I do not need you to walk me home
I do not need to cover my drink
What kind of person even thinks that way
It’s time for this to change

It’s time for you to change

We do not need you to walk us home
We do not need to cover our drinks
We do not need to go in pairs
We do not need an exit

I do not need you to walk me home
I need accountability
For you to face the dark within
Come back and join us in the living

We do not need you to walk us home
We need accountability from you
For you to face the dark within
Come back and join us in the living
