I want to be alone; I need you near me
I want to hold it in; need you to hear me
I want affection but I also need my space
I want to have control; need to be guided
I want to share but I need it one-sided
I have a broken part that I cannot replace
Why do desires direct my choice (in a decision)
Try to decide to give a voice (to indecision)
I seek the signal in the noise
What I want
What I need
What I get
Is never
quite the same
What I have
What I keep
What I leave
It’s messy to explain
‘Cause it’s messy
in my brain
My heart believes in love; my head denies it
My heart will calm your stress; my head supplies it
I have no process how detect which thought is true
My head is logical; my heart’s erratic
My head is serious; heart’s a fanatic
I am conflicted by myself so can’t blame you
Now I am vexed with this unrest (in a decision)
Doubts have depressed my skull and chest (with indecision)
How can I know the road that’s best
