Inspiration - Cosmicity

You say

that you know you can’t hurt me.

You say I’m too strong.

You stare

at the stripes in the carpet

and tell me things can’t go on.

And you presume to have power

over my emotions,

well I simply don’t need you.

And you assume that I’m listening

to your thoughtless words,

well I can just barely hear you.

I won’t be alone.

Not this time.

I won’t be alone without your love.

I won’t be alone.

Not this time.

I won’t be alone without your love.

You see

all the tears in my eyes

and you say you’re so sorry.

You know

I love the smell of your perfume.

You know it’s not fair.

And you keep on explaining

what you’re sure must have happened,

well, it needs no explanation.

And your stupidity offers me

the purist of insights

and I’ll tell you my new inspiration:

I won’t be alone.

Not this time.

I won’t be alone without your love.

I won’t be alone.

Not this time.

I won’t be alone without your love.

Every time I think about

the love that I will be without,

I can’t believe I ever loved you.

I see through your thin disguise.

You look at me to sympathize

with all the things you can’t undo.

I won’t be alone.

Not this time.

I won’t be alone without your love.
