I just want something
One thing
Can’t you let me have someone
Anyone
Just for me
And this is what I seem to be
To everybody
Your last resort

It’s just this something
One thing
That’s tearing me apart
Breaking my heart
That I don’t mean it all
To anyone
And I can’t have anything
Just for me

Life won’t let me be me
Because no one understands me
They can’t reason with me
Because all I want is
Less than
What everyone else needs
But it’s everything and more to me
Just for you to love me

And I know I’m not alone
I know I got friends
I know I got a life
And I know that
My life ain’t at its end
But I don’t know how else to be
How else to cope with being me
Than to take away everything of me

I just want something
One thing
Can’t you let me have someone
Anyone
Just for me
And this is what I seem to be
To everybody
Your last resort.

And I don't want the world to see me 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am

rm (smiling).....your lament is universal. There is, perhaps, a touch of comfort in knowing that. Thank you for sharing. RM...W
