Part of me wants to be in love
So badly
But the rest of me
Knows I shouldn't do
That

I can't
Right now
all around me
People are twisted up into other people
Everyone's in love
With someone else
And that just isn't me

I will not give you flowers

I can't do that
I don't know how

but I will give you loyalty

I'm young
And I have time
And I can be alone for a while

I need to be alone for a while
I'm existing by myself
And I've learned to enjoy my own company
So get those false promises away from me

For now.
Give me a while,
I have been known to be weak.
