Dimensions of intervention   Are needless so I think   Striving and thriving I see   I'm driving to the brink      Avoiding annoying eternal   Complications destinations   Unimportant constantly   Distorting my relations      From patience to thoughts of   Hating anyone in my mind   I find it hard to believe you   Can relate to my kind      And if I could I would   Pretend that I'm alright by myself   If you love me as I am I'll   Put my pride on the shelf      If I can I'll pretend I'm   Alright all by myself   I'd rather drown than take   Your hand      It's the way I am   Skepticism leaves a wrinkle on my brow   Cynicism prevents my change   With this suspicion I'm caught in a dilemma      Intervention with my psyche?   Rearrange walls built to hinder   The intrusion   Preservation of my mental well being      Doubt makes me value the   Safety of my distance   Can it be stubbornness to   Which I cling?      If I can I'll pretend I'm   Alright all by myself   I'd rather drown than take   Your hand      It's the way I am   And if I climb a wall of pride   Swim across my sea of doubt   Will you love me as I am, the way I am
