It's not so much that we need only love ourselves,
for most of us, for most our lives, seek love from someone else
It's not so much that we need only make it on our own,
for most of us, for most our lives, don't want to be alone
It's when we have expectant eyes, we must not look around
for it's the unexpected that action that can let us down.
We bury truth within, we lie to ourselves, more than each other
and it's the natural emotion that we fear, so thus, we smother
It's not so much that we need to tell ourselves we're wrong
for most of us, for most our lives lay where we don't belo9ng
It's not so much that we need only see in black and white
for most of us, for most our lives, choose different wrongs or right
It's more that we dare not put all our faith in one
for it will be that power held that brings it all undone
we seek love and happiness, not in ourselves, but in each other
and it's the natural emotion that we fear, so thus, we smother
