Somebody

(album: Embodiment - 2015)

I've been guarded
So afraid to get hung up on somebody
Call on someone anew
Voluntarily, in solitary
Love is an idea
A concept I simply outgrew

Past the point of needing one's caress
Hear me out, not looking to digress

I know that you're trying to make me want somebody
Haven't I yet proven I don't need nobody
While others fold, the way they do
Don't go on thinking I'll turn to you
Done it all before, it leads nowhere

I won't tell you, won't reclaim for you
All that he holds captive
The innocence that he withdrew
I know it pains you to try to tame you
Defy all your ideals and
Cloud your perfect skyline view

'Cause I once learned the hard way a heart mends
May come full circle but still meets an end

I know that you're trying to make me want somebody
Haven't I yet proven I don't need nobody
While others love, the way they do
Don't think that I will warm up to you
Done it all before, it leads to this

Show me some, show me something
There's something about you
Show me some, show me something
There's something about you
Oh, you say
Give me some, give me something
There's something around you, oh
Give me some, give me some
I see loving around you

I know that you're trying to make me want somebody
Haven't I yet proven I don't need nobody
Don't wanna witness no breakdown
So, go on, forfeit this final round
Done it all before, it leads nowhere
