Needing/Getting

By OK Go

I pretend a lot, especially when I talk to you. So if you really wanna know how I feel. Listen to this. This is exactly how I feel right now. 

But I don’t think you give a damn. 

I’ve been waiting for months, waiting for years, waiting for you to change.
Aw, but there ain’t much that’s dumber, there ain’t much that’s dumber
than pinning your hopes on a change in another. 
And I, yeah I still need you, but what good’s that gonna do? 
Needing is one thing, and getting- getting’s another.

So I been sitting around, wasting my time, wondering what you been doing. 
Aw, and it ain’t real forgiving, it ain’t real forgiving sitting here picturing someone else living. 
And I, yeah I still need you, but what good’s that gonna do? 
Needing is one thing, and getting- getting’s another. 

I’ve been hoping for months, hoping for years, hoping I might forget. 
Aw but it don’t get much dumber, it don’t get much dumber 
than trying to forget a girl when you love her. 
And I, yeah I still need you, but what good’s that gonna do? 
Needing is one thing, and getting- getting’s another. 

When? When? Why not now? Why not me? Why not me?
