Lyrics On The Edge Of Another One - Self Esteem

On The Edge Of Another One

I don’t need time passing
To tell me that I am scared
Don’t need wild mornings
To march me faster home
I need consultations with my finest advisories
And bathing in money that I made on my own
I don’t need to know about what you are doing now
Or who knew all about the others you preferred
I need careful lessons learned and breaths took deeper
And resignation to the fact this is my lot
You don’t know me, but how could you?
You don’t like me, and why would you?
I watch you eat and think how freeing it must be to not
Let consequence addle your every thought
The mindless passing of my only calling has rendered me
Shocking to the people that I love
Do the mornings frighten you?
Does my body please you?
Do you trust when I say to you I’m fine just having fun?
I could open up to the idea of you
But I’m just to tired to finish what I might start
You don’t know me, but how could you?
You don’t like me, and why would you?
