Even Though
Even though a lot of people don’t like me
Even though I don’t like me too well
I still have to admit I love me
And a lot of people think I'm swell
Even though I like conflict
I like facing opposition
I hate fighting, I hate to contradict
I like people to support and listen
Even though I make my own lion’s den
Even though I hate everyone I see
I can’t be without them
I dearly hope they can’t be without me
Even though I’m a negative person
If it’s anything I love it’s happiness and joy
The feeling of happy social immersion
Sounds of banter, jokes, and coy
Even though I act like I don’t care at all
I care a lot about how people see me
Ugly? Weird? Stupid? Even tall?
But either way, I like what I see
Even though I yearn for love
To cuddle with another soul
I realize I have enough
Being a supporting role
I’m sad I can’t be a “the one”
A girl’s true love
I have something that has always won
It’s friendship, and it’s more than enough
No matter who you are or could ever be
You love life and all it’s trials, just like me
