What I never understood

It never made sense to me
That in order to be able to love someone else
And really love him
I had to be happy
By myself

It never made sense to me
That in order to be happy
And really happy
I have to give up
All the things that upset me

It never made sense to me
That the things that upset me
And I mean really upset me
Are the things
That used to bring me so much joy

It never made sense to me
How the things that brought me joy
And brought me joy in times of sadness
Are the things
That hurt me the most

It never made sense to me
That the things that hurt me the most
And really hurt me the most
Are the things
That love me the most

It never made sense to me
That the things that love me the most
And really love me
Are the things
That I can never become dependent on

Because the life we live, it never pauses, there's no remote, no rewind, and no fast forward; only play

And in the end, you're on your own.
