I wanted somebody 

To tell me

That I was precious 

I wanted somebody

To tell me

That I was gracious 

I wanted somebody

To tell me

That I was ferocious 

But now I want somebody

To tell me 

That I am 

Devious

Envious

Furious 

Delirious 

Insidious

I want somebody to help me

I screamed it loud like a banshee

Somebody to make me feel alright 

Make me shine so bright

Make me see the daylight 

Lead me with their flashlight 

Get rid of the parasite 

Never put up a fight 

Is it too late 

To set things right 

Tired of carrying the weight 

Don't let it, don't let it, don't let it 

Escalate 

Or I will, I will, I will
