Broken Glass
Lets set things straight
you don't love me
you love the feeling
cuz you don't like the real me
you say you love me
but I annoy you
by being me
I annoy you by singing
I annoy you by liking things i like
you insult people I care about
even if I don't know them personally
you may take care of me
but I don't think you love me
I think you love the feeling
the feeling of having someone
to take care of
the feeling of being intimate
the feeling of knowing someone loves you
the feeling of not being alone
yeah, I don't think you love me
you love the feeling
But you're not alone
I warned you early on
I was numb
I wasn't too ready for love
not receiving, but giving
Love isn't for the needy
you and me
it's for those who have lots to give
and I have nothing
I'm not ready to give myself
because I don't know who I am right now
I'm broken down and scarred
I'm not able to pick up the pieces
and give them to you
They say you have to love yourself
to love someone else
but I got no love for myself
that's just how it is
I tried to warn you
but you didn't warn me
maybe I should have just left things
how they were, fwb
I knew a relationship wasn't for me
now I don't know what to do
and how to fix things.
left myself too vulnerable again
depending on others to live
I'm just another grain of sand
in this desert of dry people
trying to defend themselves
against the harshness of the sun.
