When I say that he left me, I know It's not that clear who rowed When I say that I'm lonely, I know It's not their fault Life isn't always a ball Everyone's gotta be alone sometimes Everyone's gotta be alone sometimes You can laugh alone or cry alone or look between the lines But everyone's gotta be alone sometimes When I say that my scars are my strengths I don't expect you to feel the same When I say that I'm not turning back I don't expect a yellow brick path Everyone's gotta be alone sometimes Everyone's gotta be alone sometimes You can laugh alone or cry alone or look between the lines But everyone's gotta be alone sometimes When I learned to stand on my feet I saw the trash in the street And I knew some of it would be mine and yours But that's just one thing you see when you open the doors I know you've been here before But everyone's gotta be alone sometimes Everyone's gotta be alone sometimes You can laugh alone or cry alone or look between the lines But everyone's gotta be alone sometimes
