Acquaintessential


What is it you need so bad?
A comfort blanket or something?
Honestly Laura, stop holding on so tight
You're gonna push me away
Just like you did everyone else
I need space to breath
Don't you see that?
I give you hints, show you signs
But still you ignore everything
You even ignore me when I need you
It just depends on your mood
I have to be the same as you
Same moods and feelings
You won't allow for differences
Yet you contradict yourself as well
Start yelling when I become you
Why? What is it? Do you even know yourself?
That's just it, you don't know yourself
I suggest you get to know yourself
Cos if you don't, you can't get to know me
