IT'S ONLY ME

When insecurity stands before you Dressed in the blue of the blues, Knowing the world is one step higher than he...

Can't you see?..... It's only me.

If sadness is there wearing black Spouting gloom, doom from across the room... Saying, "I must set you free!"...

Can't you see?..... It's only me.

The defiant nakedness of jealousy Dirtying the floor, slamming doors, Proclaiming infidelity,

Can't you see?..... It's only me.

The "me" I am when my head's on straight Won't berate, inflate, procrastinate. Funny, but these, all parts of me, Exist because of L-O-V-E !
