Give Me a Cuddle

With people I always believed the best
nowadays I have no people left
I have found men find me a threat
attributes they haven’t in some respect
attributes the girls quickly detect
men seek to challenge a separate aspect
competition their advantage their select
makes them better in their silly little head
I have found with girls they see and expect 
disappointed you’re not after inspect 
annoyance sensed in tones they project
you've done nothing hostile you get 

I’ve learned the world is opinions of you
they create change forget to conclude
self centred narcissists in every room
they are shallow their dull and they are delude
nearly all young people need a crew
independent thoughts had confuse 
everyone a slave too the others views
simply not caring I naturally choose

I don’t need to get better of men 
those whom have what I haven’t 
I don’t need to act to expectation 
socially apparent 
I don’t need back up so my opinion valid 
I feel like I’m meat in a world of fruit salad

I do what I do 
watch you all huddle
I just wish occasionally 
you’d give me a cuddle
