Lyrics
I'm Ok By Myself
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Could this be an arm around my waist?
Well, surely the hand contains a knife?
It's been so all of my life
Why change now?
"it hasn't!"
Now this might surprise you, but
I find I'm OK by myself
And I don't need you
Or your morality to save me
No, no, no, no, no
Then came an arm around my shoulder
Well surely the hand holds a revolver?
It's been so all of my life
Why change now?
"it hasn't!"
Now this might disturb you, but
I find I'm OK by myself
And I don't need you
Or your benevolence to make sense
Noooooooo!
Noooooooo!
Noooooooo!
Noooooooo!
After all these years I find I'm OK by myself
And I don't need you
Or your homespun philosophy
No, no, no, no
This might make you throw up in your bed:
I'M OK BY MYSELF!
And I don't need you
And I never have, I never have
Noooooooo!
Noooooooo!
Noooooooo!
Noooooooo!
