Music and structure

The song features elements of an older Korn song called "Alive", which was found on their demo tape, Neidermayer's Mind. "Alive" was eventually reworked and re-recorded for the band's sixth studio album, Take a Look in the Mirror.

Concept

"'Need To' is about being in a relationship with someone you love so much but you are too scared to get close to them because you're paranoid that they may stop loving you.

You pull me closer, I push you away,

You tell me it's okay, I can't help but feel the pain.

I was used to being used by people I loved and any future relationship was going to feel the same. Every time I thought I was getting too close, I would push her away." – Jonathan Davis

«Need To» (с англ. — «Нужно») — второй сингл американской ню-метал-группы Korn. Песня появилась на одноимённом первом альбоме группы. Песня представляет собой фирменное звучание Korn с семиструнными гитарами, настроенными ниже обычного, и очень эмоциональным стилем пения. Эта песня родилась из другой песни Korn «Alive», которая появилась на демо Neidermeyer's Mind (и была позднее перезаписана для шестого студийного альбома группы Take a Look in the Mirror).
