Lyrics[]
[Verse 1: Allie X]
Hey, where'd you go?
We used to be friends
We used to be close
Hey, why'd you leave?
I used to need you
You used to need me
[Pre-Chorus 1: Allie X]
Sitting here with a fist full of ashes
And a heart that I can't even use
Just keep telling myself, over and over and over till
[Chorus: Allie X]
I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you
Anymore (anymore, anymore)
[Verse 2: Valley Girl]
Now that you're gone
Days are wasted, way too long
Nights feel like years
Without your body next to mine
Without you here
[Pre-Chorus 2: Valley Girl]
Toss and we turn with a fist full of ashes
And a heart that I don't even use
I'll just keep telling myself, over and over and over till
[Chorus: Valley Girl]
I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you
Anymore (anymore, anymore)
[Bridge: Allie X & Valley Girl]
Missing you is like second nature
Parts of you and so many layers
I'm wishing now that I could erase you
But I don't know what to do (oh)
I miss the calm and your nirvana
I miss the fire and all your drama
I'm whispering like it's a mantra
But that don't make it true
[Chorus: Allie X & Valley Girl]
I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you
Anymore (anymore, anymore)
[Outro: Allie X & Valley Girl]
No, I don't need you
No, I don't need you
No, I don't need you
No, I don't need you
