lyrics

I’m not scared of rejection, why should I be?
I’d rather make the suggestion than live silently
It might hurt late at night when I’m alone
At least I put up a fight and let you know

You might think I’m too intense but I won’t apologise for my self-confidence
And I don’t need anyone by my side you should be flattered that I asked you along for the ride

But you said no and I died a little inside
Cos this has happened to me 1000 times
Fantasise about the idea of you
Don’t know why I’m surprised when you don’t come through
You said no
So I’m still alone
But maybe this is how it’s meant to be
I’d rather love myself than have the wrong person love me

I’m not scared of affection, it’s something I crave
I do get attention but that’s not the same
And I do what I want when I’m alone
I don’t need anyone to make me whole

My life is full of open doors but sometimes I do wish for more
And I don’t think it’s weak to say it might be nice to have someone I could talk to every day

But you said no and I died a little inside
Cos this has happened to me 1000 times
Fantasise about the idea of you
Don’t know why I’m surprised when you don’t come through
You said no
So I’m still alone
But maybe this is how it’s meant to be
I’d rather love myself than have the wrong person love me

I’m an independent self indulgent woman
I have so much power over my own life
And I wouldn’t change that for anyone
But it’s ok to wish for company sometimes

But you said no and I died a little inside
Cos this has happened to me 1000 times
Fantasise about the idea of you
Don’t know why I’m surprised when you don’t come through
You said no
So I’m still alone
But I know this is how it’s meant to be
I’d rather love myself than have the wrong person love me
