Not Another Love Song...



I don't need any love
I don't need any friendship
I don't need anything anymore
Your love is for weaklings
My love is for losers
Love isn't for me anymore
I'm Standing for the occasion
Needing no more persuasion
Life has set me free forever
Forever is a long, long time. . .
I don't need any compassion
I don't need a listener
I don't need another woman anymore
I don't need the touch
I don't need the feelings
I prefer to be dead inside forever
I'm taking back my life
Trying to get it right
Listening to my inner voice again
Again means over and over. . .
