title : fuck valentines
You see the couples all around
You see their love is actually there
No lies, nor deciet
Just emotions of kindness and care

See the faces full of smiles
Simple gestures of holding hands or a hug
They're addicted to one another
Being the other one's drug

See, Valentine's Day is coming soon
A day dedicated to expressing 'love'
It's every little girl's fairytale day
The one they always dream of

This 'single' thing is hard for me
No one can really understand
The one person I need it from
Never lent me that helping hand

Someone pull a Justin Bieber
I wanna be that 'one less lonely girl'
Even if just for a day
Temporarily take me out of this downward whirl

Falling in love is simple
It's like one, two three
Falling out, however
Is definitely not easy

What happened to me moving on?
To picking up the pieces of my life?
I'm determined yet full of thoughts
The feelings felt are full of strife

Hakuna Matata, means no worries
It's a motto I should live by
I know I really care too much
I realize that every time I try

So on this Valentine's day
Someone do her a favor..
Show her you care
And make sure you save her
