I’d Rather Be Alone Lyrics

I'll always love you that way, nothing’s ever gonna change how I feel about ya
But honestly, nowadays, I believe straight up you could never give me what I want
Ain't that somethin'? Thought that we’d work it out if I just stuck around, let you grow up
You got a thing for withholding your love, you give me a little, but never enough
Oh-woah, what's the point? You don't really wanna fix it 'cause you're so avoidant
Now you're touching on my body and I do enjoy it
Don't ever take me serious, and that's so annoying
But you’re the only one in my heart, and that is making this so hard, ooh, ooh

Guess this isn’t gonna be my happy ending
Oh, I tried to bite my tonguе, but I just couldn't help it
Oh, if pain’s the price of lovе, then I just can't accept it
And I don't wanna say this, but I just gotta send it
'Cause, oh, I, I’d rather be alone, woah-woah
Than wait around for better with you
Oh, I, I'd rather be alone
Than spend my life holding on forever with you

I know all about you, but you're never there for me
So close to me, it seems, you're always out of reach
So I'd rather rip the Band-Aid off than scratch it 'til it bleeds, oh-woah
It gets to a point where believing you'll change is a foolish assumption
You left me no choice, and I don't wanna be hurt forever
I will put myself first, I find out it's worse to look back and admit
I lied to myself when I always knew better (No-ooh)
Potential's just potential, and love is not pleasure, oh

Guess this isn't gonna be my happy ending
Oh, I tried to bite my tongue, but I just couldn't help it
Oh, if pain's the price of love, then I just can't accept it
And I don't wanna say this, but I just gotta send it
'Cause, oh, I, I'd rather be alone, woah-woah (Woah-oh-oh)
Than wait around for better with you
Oh, I (I), I'd rather be alone
Than spend my life holding on forever with you (Forever and ever)

I'd rather be alone, woah-woah
Oh, I, I'd rather be alone
Than spend my life holding on—
