"You asked me what I wanted
and I just laughed,
it was 3 in the morning
what do I want?
a thousand things ran through my head
'I just want to be.' I told you.
But in all honesty?
I want someone to love me
and hold me
and kiss me and tell me
I'm not as horrible as I think I am
and I'm not a shit person
and I want someone to just be with me
and tell me everything
will be okay
and I'm okay.
But instead of saying that,
I said I wanted to just be.
Hook-up and forget
because that's what I deserve
isn't it?"
