I’m sacrificing love in all the wrong places
In order to get what I want
Where I want
Because love’s the only thing that’s holding me back
I can’t rely on others
I’ve gotta do this on my own
As a woman
I need to embrace loneliness
My trade-off for love is life
I can’t have one with the other
I need to find purpose in this life again
I need something to keep me going
The pay-offs haven’t been worth it of late
And I’m running out of steam
There’s only so much further I can run
I want beauty in life
But then again, I don’t want things enough.
I need something to do with my life
I’ve been searching for a while
I don’t feel like I belong anywhere
That I’m always in between
Maybe that’s where I’m supposed to be.
