I don't understand
the big deal
I don't need a man
I don't need anyone.
Why can't you let me be?
Stop trying to fix me up.
I'm glad that you two are happy
but I am not you
I do not need someone
else to make me happy.
I don't want to be with anyone.
I am happy on my own.
Why can't you understand
one isn't always a lonely number.
There are no demands
when it is just you.
I don't need someone to
tell me lies and say they love me.
I don't need someone who
will break my defenses and me
I don't need someone to tell me
how to live my life
or tell me who I should be
rather than accept me as I am.
It's always the same fight.
You should know by now
that love does not equal light
and anyway, I can survive the dark.
Also... the only one who
can truly make me happy
isn't someone you find
or anything you do
why can't you see?
The only one who can
make me happy, is me?
