The Hermit
I wanna sleep - why can't I rest?
Too much into everybody else I always invest
But when I wanna be alone, it's so wrong
I don't HAVE to have a partner to be strong
I'm fine day by day doing my own thing
Naked I can dance, garden, and sing
I don't need to worry about anyone else
'Cause I'm the best version of me when I'm by myself
I'll never understand why alone cares whether I'm alone or not so much
I don't need anybody - and NOBODY I trust
I'm not sorry that I don't need to be social at all
Whenever I trust someone, I'm vulnerable, and I'll begin to fall
I'll begin to neglect what's important to me
'Cause when I'm with someone 24/7 - I'm not free
Nothing in my future requires another soul with me
But that doesn't mean if it happens that I won't be open to see
I'm just saying I'm more than capable by my lone self
If money didn't exist - thus stressing out my health
