about

This song is based on a true IG story

lyrics

They say it's open
But I don't see
What's open about it

They say they coping
But it's looking more
Like trauma bonding

They say they want
But what they want
It doesn't satisfy them

They say it's good
But if it's good
Why aren't they in alignment?

If it's so true, if it's so cool
Why are you on my line then?
If it's so new, if it's so you
Will you be satisfied when?
If it's so true, if it's so cool
All your needs are provided.
If it's so new, if it's so you
Why aren't you more excited?

I
Just want my equal share
That's not how it appears
That's not how it appears

I
Just want you to play fair
That's not what you want to hear
Not what you want to hear

I say I don't
I say I do
Truth is I'm undecided

It's not quite right
But nothing's wrong
When you are here beside me

Enjoy our romps
Respect our taunts
But love goes unprovided

Can't say I won't
Ain't no reason
'Cept this LASH on my mind and

I
Just want my equal share
That's not how it appears
That's not how it appears

I
Just want you to play fair
That's not what you want to hear
Not what you want to hear

I
Just want my equal share
That's not how it appears
That's not how it appears

I
Just want you to play fair
That's not what you want to hear
Not what you want to hear

I just want, I just want
I just want my equal
I just want, I just want
I just want my equal
I just want, I just want
I just want my equal
I just want, I just want
I just want my equal

Is it really equal?
Or is this just a prequel?
To how this gonna be
Why are you unfair to me?

Do you ever play fair?
Or do you really care?
'Cause that's not how it seems
Won't you say what you mean?

They say it's open
But I don't see
What's open about it

They say they coping
But it's looking more
Like trauma bonding

They say they want
But what they want
It doesn't satisfy them

I
Just want my equal share
That's not how it appears
That's not how it appears

I
Just want you to play fair
That's not what you want to hear
Not what you want to hear

Why aren't they in alignment?
Will you be more excited?
When your needs are provided
Won't you let, won't you let
When your needs are provided
Let, let
Won't you let me provide it?
