alone

i won't let anyone in
this i promise you
i've made one last mistake
now i'm going in alone

i won't wait now
i've had my practice
i finally know how to walk away
now i'm going in alone

had enough of the heartache
of all the broken promises
no last chance will i take
now i'm going in alone

i used to lean so hard
on everyone that i loved
but what happnes when they break
i'll have to go in alone

now if i fail
i'll know just who to blame
but at least it won't be fake
now that i'm in this alone

leave you all behind
friends, yes even family
it's not that i hate
but i have to do this alone

then maybe i can come back in
sit back down, after i've had time to think
but for now
i need to be alone

i'll build up every wall
high and so strong
only one day to watch them shake
when i'm ready not to be alone

but for now please leave
get out, hurry
don't wait for me to break
i have to do this alone

i have to make it on my own
