Analysis of Vague
Hmm...So it's easy to say...
I've been lying to myself
To fool everyone else so they'll
Get off my back.
In fact...
I've know the truth all along
and I strung along...
Sad Song.
Not For Me.
Oh Well! Moving On!
And as I go...
More people too...
Surround me,
But I'm much overdue...
Is it so important?
My solitude.
When most my happiness
Now comes from you...
How vague...
Maybe untrue?
Possibly.
But I'll leave it to you.
