Maybe I'll Be It

You feel you can deplete me

Make me feel small

Have me question you, 

Then get angry when I do

 

I hold onto you

Feel hopeless without you

Grab on to your coat tails

And let you drag me through the mud

 

I am nothing without you

Or so I tell myself sometimes

You are nothing without me

 

What's happening here?

How am I losing focus?

What's happening to me?

Where am I going?

 

Only following you

Only seeing you

Wondering why you float away from me

 

I am stronger than this

I am a woman

I am independent when I need to be

And I can kick your teeth in

 

I'm not begging for you

Or giving you that time of day

Make your own decision

 

Maybe I'll be it
