Songtexte Layaway - Collin Richardson

I've been okay with being lonely
Life is moving fast
But when you give me an ounce of loving
I'll be quick to do the dash
Got me running, running, mind be numbing
I'm stuck to you, I'm gumming
Something 'bout you got me bugging, ducking
Every small doubt I'm chucking back
Got me relapsing 'cause you my crack
Drunk even though I ain't ever had cognac
Caked even though I ain't never been short-stacked

Too bad you know that I'm in my prime
But if you gave me the okay, I'm ready to ride
Though we're not together, you will always be mine
I need some time away, fix some things with me
Put you on layaway
Layaway, fix some things then you'll come and lay with me
Bae, 'cause I want you to stay (Yeah, yeah)

I'm just way too clingy, insecurities, got many
I can make it all go away
Sometimes I get jelly, I can't take it when you leave me
I can be more peanut butter, just don't leave me under
How can you love me just to leave me?
Must be my fault so I'll do some fixing
Once I am ready, I'll do it all over again
'Cause even though I'm alone, I'll wait for you to come home
I'll repair my broken parts, I'll cover up all my scars
I cannot let you go because I love you the most
(Because I love you the most, yeah, yeah)

Too bad you know that I'm in my prime
But if you gave me the okay, I'm ready to ride
Though we're not together, you will always be mine
I need some time away, fix some things with me
Put you on layaway
Layaway, fix some things then you'll come and lay with me
Bae, 'cause I want you to stay (Yeah, yeah)

'Cause I crave validation, it's in my nature
I'm a people pleaser, but I can't please you baby
Battle every day with my demons
Just wanna free them so you don't see them
'Cause I crave validation (Validation)
It's in my nature (In my nature)
I'm a people pleaser (People pleaser)
But I can't please you baby (Please you baby)
Battle every day (Battle every day)
With my demons (With my demons)
Just wanna free them (Wanna free them)
So you don't see them (You don't see them)
