Someone Who Cares

I need to stop being someone I’m not for people who don’t care who I am

I need to stop wondering why things never work out in the end

It’s not me, it’s not you, it’s just life, we can’t pretend that we are supposed to be together just because we can

You’ve got a lot on your plate, I’ve got a lot in my hands

I’m unable to eat anything, you just can’t

Don’t know why this always happens to me

It’s never my plan

My plan is always love and romance

But it never lasts

Do I stop looking for you?

Are you even real?

Is there someone out there that feels like home, not surreal?

I’ve had one person but life likes to kill off all the good things I’d like to keep,

Still, I can’t help but want those thrills again

Learning someone and acing it

I want to remember how it feels to never call it quits just because you got in an argument

I want genuine attachment in arms that are meant to hold, not grasp me

I want someone who walks with me, not past me

I want someone who cares when they upset me

I want someone who cares

Who accepts me

I want someone who cares

To protect me

I want someone who cares about the person inside me

Not just someone who wants to get inside me

Feels like it’ll never happen

Every time I get close

Alter egos step right back in

I’m tired of chasing people who don’t want to be captured

I’m done doing what makes others happy

I just wish that meant I’d also be happy

Why can’t I just be happy

Alone
