“I’m Doing Fine”

Prompt: write a song about your love life (just in time for Valentine’s day lol)

We held onto each other, like all first loves do
We thought we’d last forever, till I went and dumped you
Some would say I messed it up, that I lost everything
‘Cause four years later I’m still alone, but I don’t regret a thing
No this is not an apology
I cannot emphasize it enough, this is not an apology
I’m not sorry

Love is a beautiful thing but it’s not everything to me
Love is a beautiful thing but it’s only one part of the game
And I’m tired of justifying to you the way I live my life
Yes I’m happy that you’re happy, but I’m not lonely, so please stop asking
I’m doing fine

I move often it seems, to brand new places
And new places for me, mean brand new faces
You think you have all that you need, ’cause he makes you smile
But I have many more smiles to see, and for me that’s worthwhile
No I’m not “missing out” on things
I cannot emphasize it enough, I am not “missing out” on things
Keep your pity

Love is a beautiful thing but it’s not everything to me
Love is a beautiful thing but it’s only one part of the game
And I’m tired of justifying to you the way I live my life
Yes I’m happy that you’re happy, but I’m not lonely, so please stop asking
I’m doing fine

Fine(x20)
I’m not missing out, so stop asking now
Your questions are boring, forgive me for snoring
There’s no bitter pill, no I haven’t fell ill
I think that love’s great, but frankly I’ll wait
Someone will come by and in the meantime I don’t have patience for you to patronize
I’m not holding out and I’m not scared to try, but I have bigger plans and no these aren’t lies
All on my own, my world is bright, I live in colour, not black and white
Our worth isn’t made up of kisses and cries and making sure someone will hold us at night
So I chase after dreams and fight my own fights, ’cause I know on my own that I’ll be alright

Love is a beautiful thing but it’s not everything to me
Love is a beautiful thing but it’s only one part of the game
And I’m tired of justifying to you the way I live my life
Yes I’m happy that you’re happy, but I’m not lonely, so please stop asking
It’s annoying
I’m doing just fine
