They harass me, They hound me, They tease and pester and Beleaguer me You know what? I don't know who I love, and that's o-kay. Nowadays, Society has these expectations They want you to love But what's love worth if you always have it? Why do I have a problem if I'm not in love? Why do I have a problem if I haven't won the lottery? Love should be something rare, The pulchritudinous needle in the haystack, Maybe we've got' To take a step back; Maybe this obsession (With obsession) Is just diluting love, Turning thick red blood Into worthless cursèd water. When I love, I'll scream it on the rooftops I'll holler to the heavens I'll thank God, I'll curse God, I'll be running around roaring Declarations of Love But not now--now, I don't love. And now, I'm fine.
