Autocratic Lyrics

I don't need anyone to talk to
If you plan to lend your ear
I don't need anyone to share with
I've got all my friends in here

I don't need no catalytic conversation just to 'bring me out'
I know me and that's no consolation
I don't really wanna let it out -

IF I WANT TO LET YOU IN
I WILL, I WILL
IF I WANT TO KEEP YOU OUT,
I WILL, I WILL
'COS I AM THE AUTOCRATIC SUM OF MY LIFE
AND I WILL KEEP MY GUARD IF I LIKE

Well I know the games you're playing
'Cos I know I've played them too
Just a push in the right direction
And I might dish the dirt to you

I know the kindness the caring
Masquerading as 'naive'
But no love, no earthly motivation betrays me to honesty

IF I WANT TO LET YOU IN
I WILL, I WILL
IF I WANT TO KEEP YOU OUT,
I WILL, I WILL
'COS I AM THE AUTOCRATIC SUM OF MY LIFE
AND I WILL KEEP MY GUARD IF I LIKE
