*Lost in a desert of rights and wrongs, With a list of pros and a list of cons. I can't quite tell my left from right, But I can't stand here figuring it out all night. I know what you need, and I know what you want, Yet you're stubbornly wearing these terms back-to-front. You confuse me, you use me, you tell me it's Love, But falling for your charms is something I could be above. So I'll make myself happy, in my own ****** way, Even though you won't support me, no matter what you say. Leave him alone, leave me alone, please just let us be, And you can do what you want, without a word from me. For the first time in forever, I can feel a sort of trust, But it isn't meant for you, and it's certainly not for "us." I want to cut you out of me, for more than just right now, And for the first time in forever, I'm starting to see how.*
