strings

selfish love
i need you -
to let me love you.

i just must
feel OK
with how i am feeling...

all i did
- was crush you,
but if i smile sweetly,
will you forget?

your gentle energy
clouds my concerns:
for you.

it's all about Me here.
it's my mistakes (not your pain)
that i want to erase.
it's the anger i brought out
of you that rides on
my conscience.

if you would just forget about yourself -
nevermind the heartache you've lived with -

and satisfy my needs so
that i can be fullfilled.
