Lyrics Sorcha Richardson - Alone

If there's one thing you should learn,
It's maybe you should be concerned,
About me, about me.

The secret's out, I'm telling it,
There's a Rebel inside Eliot,
And she's leaving, don't you follow me.

Cause I'm better off alone,
I'm better off alone,
I'm better when I'm holding onto nothing,
When I've got room to roam.

You can try and win my heart,
But you should know before you start,
That it beats in syncopation,
With the city, rarely with the nation.

I wrapped your flag around my neck
To try and keep my pulse in check,
But it's all a waste, you hate this place.
And our bones break when we embrace.

That's why we're better off alone
We're better off alone
Better when there's nobody beside me
So much better on my own.

On my oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-own
On my oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-own

My lungs are set to burst
This house is haunted, maybe I'm cursed,
My lungs are set to burst
This house is haunted, maybe something much worse.
My dreams are dark and cold,
I'm lost and alone on a road I don't know.
Dragging a chest that's too heavy to hold,
Full of the feelings that I never showed,
Full of the secrets that I never told
Chained round my knees, now they buckle and fold.

That's why I'm better off alone,
I'm better off alone,
I'm better when I'm holding onto nothing,
When I've got room to roam.
Yeah, I'm better off alone.
Yeah, I'm better off alone.
I'm better when there's nobody beside me
So much better on my own
On my oh-oh-own.
