I want to thank nobody for getting me this far
I did it all on my own
Nobody was there to help me up when I fell
Nobody was there to dry my eyes when I cried
There are people out there who need to be needed, and also need to need
There are people out there who love to be loved and also love to love
Those are the people who when they fall have a hand waiting, outstretched
and ready to help them to their feet
But I don’t want to need and I don’t want to be needed, I don’t want to love
or be loved
I want to be me and I want to be free, and I don’t want you telling me who
I’m supposed to be.
So go on and be needed, go on and need, just so long as it’s not me
So go on and be loved, go on and love, just leave me be.
