I've given you a bit of humanity
I've given you indestructible dreams
Time doesn't make us invincible anymore
But very full of ourselves
I've given you a bit of serenity
That feeling you get on Sunday
When you don't have to do a thing
You just have to be and you don't know what
I'm not your loneliness
Just a pang in the ribs and then
You'll forget what you had to tell me
I'm not your loneliness
Just a sentence to repeat and then
You'll forget who you heard it from
You gave me a bit of maturity
The kind where you never tell the truth
When you pretend everything's fine even
You gave me your superficiality
That almost chronic ruthlessness
Where you stay afloat and land on your feet
Even if you've got so much rot
I'm not your loneliness
Just a pang in the ribs and then
You'll forget what you had to tell me
I'm not your loneliness
Just a sentence to repeat and then
You'll forget who you heard it from
I'm not your loneliness
A prayer learned by heart
That you don't even know what it means anymore
I'm not your loneliness
A borrowed word that
You don't know who to give back to anymore
You don't know who to give back to anymore
