I've accepted the fact
That I'm gonna be alone for the rest of my life
It's not because nobody wants me
But rather, I don't want nobody
I'm gonna build my house in the woods, far away from here
There's a reason why I don't believe in love
There's a reason why nobody's ever heard of true love
You say there are fish in the sea for me
Well I don't see how
Because from where I'm looking down
There's more ocean than ground
You say you'll believe it when you see it
well I've got to hear the sound
You say you love me, do you mean it?
Well maybe she'll stick around
And yes, maybe I lack conviction
Or maybe I'd rather avoid the friction that seems to come with every fairy tale,
every flirtatious fiction
every single girl who claims she's smitten
I've accepted the fact
That I'm gonna be alone for the rest of my days
It's not because nobody wants me
Or maybe..
I'm gonna build my house in the woods far away from here
There's a reason why I don't believe in love
There's a reason why nobody's ever heard of true love
Loves a lie,
It's passed me by
You won't find it here
Well if loves alive
It's passed me by
You won't find it here
Your preaching falls on def ears
You won't find it here.
These are the first draft (Not the actual) lyrics to a song that I wrote that can be found here. : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fiij8M_DzT8&list;=TL1lqm-NblPkcQkzsePFxHMHSh8Pl1viVL&index;=2
