What Do I Want?
I want to be a mystery, yet be known
I want to be together, yet alone
Is it too much to ask, To be famous yet unknown?
To be a wanderer, yet have a home?
My insecurity makes me sick,
Yet my confidence makes me thick Can I be harmless, yet grip the stick?
Be completely smooth yet have a nick?
Can I live in a lie, yet be true?
Can I be unique, yet so like you?
Have no control, yet know what to do?
Can I be ugly, yet beautiful too?
Answer me, I need your help,
Can you help me or someone else?
I need your help, can’t you see, Are you even listening to me?
