You made me cry
So I lied
[To myself]
And said I needed it
But I'm quite happy without tears
Without the fears of rejection
Because
I was already rejected
Version Two point oh is here
I'm proud of myself
I didn't show my hand
Listen to the band as the Titanic slowly sinks
You'd think
I could meet a man and not through
A pathetic piece of metal
Well I can
And I will
The wounds are burning
The gun is smoking still
But at least I know
I was right at least
My intuition was dead-on
Even if I didn't listen to it
Suppressed it
When it screamed for help
I redressed it
Now you're gone
I was alone all along
You needed the ego boost
I gave it
I needed love
I gave it
You got what you wanted.

I promise, the last angsty woe-is-me one for a while.
