On My Own
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.
There are some things in this world
That i'll never understand
What is wrong and what is right,
Who to trust to lend a hand
How does everything just come,
Come together all at once?
Think you got it all in check,
You think you're better than the rest
You think you're better than the rest
There are some things in this world
That i have to understand
How to hold onto today,
Let the dirt all wash away
People talk when they don't think
People say what they don't mean
Gotta take it all to heart,
Watch it all just fall apart
You watch it all just fall apart
Sometimes i gotta make it my own
Sometimes i gotta do it all alone
I gotta learn to make it on my own
Good things come and then they go
Seems the bad goes way too slow
Turn around it's almost gone
Did ya get to have some fun
Do you know when it's too late
Know the moment, know the state
I don't think so, i don't care
I am the only one out here
I am the only one out here
Sometimes i gotta make it my own
Sometimes i gotta do it all alone
I gotta learn to make it on my own
Do you know what's going on?
Think about it one by one
You don't owe me anything
You don't know me anyway
Forget about it, give it up
You look the fool, you look the chump
Many time's you'll steal the show
But they won't all just let it go
They won't all just let it go
Sometimes i gotta make it my own
Sometimes i gotta do it all alone
I gotta learn to make it on my own
