Self Love Ain't Just Jerking OFF

To love yourself is a tricky thing
I've sought it far and wide
In the past I looked to others
their reflections were my guide
But sometimes objects in the mirror
are closer than appear
Suddenly, the world would turn
and I'd be left right here
To wallow in self-hatred
so much stronger than before
I abandoned all my hopeless hopes
when you walked through my door
And now your gone
and hope has smacked my right across the face
and all I have to show from this
is increased closet space
But, I have a plan of action
and its really not half-bad
I'm putting up the shutters
I've missed the comfort of being sad
Truer words were never spoken
and I understand them clear
There may hope on other planets
I just can't find it here
"Stunned by my own reflection, It's looking back, sees me too clearly and I swore I'd never go there again, Not unlike a friend that politely drags you down,down,down"

When you see me on the street, yell out "FAVO!!!"

I've been to alot of Pearl Jam shows;So fucking what.
