Now that I'm alone,
I can do anything.
'Cause being on my own
Is so empowering.
But that's just a lie
That I tell to everyone around me.
But that's just a lie
That I tell myself.
Oh, I'm lonely,
Oh, when I'm not alone.
Now that you've gone away
I spend a lot of time thinking when I shouldn't be.
And I wish that you'd stayed just a little bit longer.
Now I listen to music that comforts me
Since you can't anymore.
Now I listen to music
That I used to hate.
