The One That You Love

Running ‘round,
You play the clown
While others wait to dance.

Walk the line,
Now take your time,
You wouldn’t want to get lost.

     You take what you can
     And you don’t give a damn,
     ‘Cause the one that you love is yourself.
     You have nothing to hide,
     For there’s nothing inside,
     ‘Cause the one that you love is yourself.

Standing still,
With time to kill,
But much too busy for words.

You act concerned,
The record turns,
And music drips from the walls.

     A star fell today,
     But you through it away,
     ‘Cause the one that you love is yourself.
     You can’t show defeat,
     Yes, you’re full of conceit,
     For the one that you love is yourself

So confused,
We’re not amused,
As laughter closes you in.

You try to care,
But just beware,
You might just give up to much
