Dependence Is A Dirty Word.

Dependence is a dirty word.

Dependence is a dirty word
and I told them I didn't feel it,
let myself believe I didn't need him,
until he ended it.

They told me I should move on, move over,
start again, a fresh start, a new life,
ignore the fact he's already lined up a new wife,
they told me to get a new boy, a new girl, a new world of my own.

I wasn't sure this was what I wanted to do
because it was all easier said than done
and he'd always told me I had no sense of fun,
so it wasn't easy for me to get out there.

I wanted to tell them to leave me alone,
they were happy with their job lot
and I hated the smiles and what not,
whatever they said it didn't help me.

Dependence is a dirty word
and I'm obsessed and I digress
because I don't know what would be best.
Start again? I think I'll fucking end it.
