Knees Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sittin' in a parked car
We don't even fight no more
We don't even touch no more
Used to be my best friend
We don't even laugh no more
Barely even talk no more
[Pre-Chorus]
You wanna hold my hand and then you won't
You say you love me then you don't
You keep me runnin' and runnin' around
[Chorus]
If I'm not all you need, then just set me free
I'm down on my knees
If you're not the one for me, then just let me be
I'm begging you, please
I'm praying for closed doors and open windows
I'll follow where the wind blows, don't be scared to leave
If I'm not all you need, then just set me free
I'm down on my knees tonight
[Verse 2]
We used to go out on dates
Now you don't wanna go no place
Feels like we're stuck in one place
I wish I could read your mind
Instead I gotta read your eyes
Oh, how they tell me lies
Sittin' in a parked car
We don't even fight no more
We don't even touch no more
Used to be my best friend
We don't even laugh no more
Barely even talk no more
[Pre-Chorus]
You wanna hold my hand and then you won't
You say you love me then you don't
You keep me runnin' and runnin' around
[Chorus]
If I'm not all you need, then just set me free
I'm down on my knees
If you're not the one for me, then just let me be
I'm begging you, please
I'm praying for closed doors and open windows
I'll follow where the wind blows, don't be scared to leave
If I'm not all you need, then just set me free
I'm down on my knees tonight
[Verse 2]
We used to go out on dates
Now you don't wanna go no place
Feels like we're stuck in one place
I wish I could read your mind
Instead I gotta read your eyes
Oh, how they tell me lies
[Pre-Chorus]
You wanna hold my hand and then you won't
You say you love me then you don't
You keep me runnin' and runnin' around
[Chorus]
If I'm not all you need, then just set me free
I'm down on my knees
If you're not the one for me, then just let me be
I'm begging you, please
I'm praying for closed doors and open windows
I'll follow where the wind blows, don't be scared to leave
If I'm not all you need, then just set me free
I'm down on my knees tonight
[Bridge]
Set, set, set me free
Let, let, let me be
I'm down, down on my knees
(I'm down, down on my knees)
Set, set, set me free
Let, let, let me be
I'm down, down on my knees
[Chorus]
If I'm not all you need, then just set me free
I'm down on my knees
If you're not the one for me, then just let me be
I'm begging you, please
I'm praying for closed doors and open windows
I'll follow where the wind blows, don't be scared to leave
If I'm not all you need, then just set me free
I'm down on my knees tonight
You wanna hold my hand and then you won't
You say you love me then you don't
You keep me runnin' and runnin' around
[Chorus]
If I'm not all you need, then just set me free
I'm down on my knees
If you're not the one for me, then just let me be
I'm begging you, please
I'm praying for closed doors and open windows
I'll follow where the wind blows, don't be scared to leave
If I'm not all you need, then just set me free
I'm down on my knees tonight
[Bridge]
Set, set, set me free
Let, let, let me be
I'm down, down on my knees
(I'm down, down on my knees)
Set, set, set me free
Let, let, let me be
I'm down, down on my knees
[Chorus]
If I'm not all you need, then just set me free
I'm down on my knees
If you're not the one for me, then just let me be
I'm begging you, please
I'm praying for closed doors and open windows
I'll follow where the wind blows, don't be scared to leave
If I'm not all you need, then just set me free
I'm down on my knees tonight
About
Genius Annotation
“Knees” is the 5th track from Bebe Rexha’s debut album Expectations. A pop ballad about begging for someone to admit their time is up, and asking them to end the relationship as their connection is no longer holding up.
“Knees” features an acoustic-pop sound with subtle influences of deep-house while Bebe croons to her fading lover.
According to Bebe in an interview with Ryan Seacrest, “Knees” is set to be remixed by American DJ Marshmello, and thinks it’s “sick and insane.” However for unknown reasons the remix was never released.
