Analysis of All I'm Really Looking For Is Me
I don't want to play,
I don't want to know,
I don't want to be a part
of someone else's soul.
I don't want to sing,
I don't want to dance.
I don't want to hold your
hand and give you one more
chance.
If I knew how to laugh,
I would let you see,
I'd take a photograph.
Just to set you free,
Cos all I'm really looking for
Is Me.
