music & lyrics @ Michael Cerveris

I'm a modern woman, a nineties man
My shrink, my job in order
If you don't get in the way you can be my lover
I'm taking classes, working out, consult psychic advisors
Really working on myself no matter what the price is

I'm an individual
I'm an individual
I'm an individual
And I don't need you

Everyone's responsible for his or herself solely
Self improvement only possible by neglecting others wholly
Don't tell me the things you need
Don't ask me to provide them
I've wants inside myself to feed
No time to tend to yours

I'm an individual
I'm an individual
I'm an individual
And I don't need you

Give me your attention dear
Give me your affection dear
Tell me what I want to hear
Go in my direction
Give me everything I need
Support and understanding
Just don't ask the same of me
Because I'll leave as soon as I'm standing on my own

Individual

Don't need comfort
and I don't need love
and I don't need you
Individual

Been around long enough to know
There's too much sacrificing
I always need more room to grow
No time for compromising

Your feelings are your own concern
If I hurt you its your fault
Where I go the bridges burn
Your open wounds deserve
Salt

I'm an individual
Don't need you
I'm an individual
