Unconditionality

You know we've only got one life to live That's why I'm so surprised you've got so little to give When you gonna give me back the freedom that I crave We're scraps upon the wind and There's nothing here that's left to save This love will only start eroding me Ain't ever gonna be about owning me Why can't you love me just because I'm me Why don't you give me just a little Unconditionality Why won't you let me be me ... and just love me? You've got my heart, my soul all twisted up behind While you can't even bother or pretend to be kind I want a love with no conditions and just a little respect Someone who wants me with all my flaws and scars and yet Your strange love's eroding me Seems to be all about owning me But you can't take who I'm meant to be (i'm just me) Why can't you offer to me Unconditionality Why can't you let me be me... and just love me? I see nothing but hypocrisy Your empty words ringing so hollow to me Why do you see love as some game to play? (well okay) Sacrifice your Queen ... and let me fly away Why d'you make me stay? Cos you just turn away When you don't like to see, a part of me, that's not perfect When we began this thing, you really had me fooled Cos ever since that day, yeah, all you've done is push and pull True love will always accept another person's flaws This ain't enough for me, I'm out the door Cos I want more (of what you can't give me) Your careless love eroded me You won't get the chance again to be owning me I'm stepping to the light and taking care of me (yes me) Do you even know the meaning of Unconditionality Why couldn't you just love me? Cos I'm sure it's there ...waiting somewhere Now that I'm free, it's waiting for me, cos I'm worth it Unconditionality
