i've been better by myself
never really needed no one else
all those years I left behind
people who messed up my mind, my mind
i really don't mind

i was waiting for someone
to come along and give me, what i wanted
people said i'd gone for good
well how they mis-understood my mind
i really don't mind

i'll find another way to pick up my head and say, forget it
I'll find another way to pick up my head and say, forget it
by myself
by myself
by myself
by myself

i was dreaming of the past
all the hopes and fears that never lasted
all those fools can go for gold
shut your mouth or save your soul, you don't know
d'you really don't know?

i'll find another way to pick up my head and say, forget it
i'll find another way to pick up my head and say, forget it
all by myself
by myself
by myself
by myself
