lyrics
Sometimes I wish I never opened up my eyes
Because all these rampant images are burned into my mind
You don’t care what I say, you’ll do it anyway
I guess I don’t care either, so have a nice, egregious day
I would have never got your cruelty, your sickening iniquity
But time has made me realize that truth is conditional
I’m feeling oppositional, incivility
Now I don’t care about anything
See, but that’s okay
I’ve always been this way
Why does everyone think that I shouldn’t be alone?
Can’t you see that I don’t need people to feel at home?
No one should be worrying for me, you see
I’m okay, I’m okay, because I’ve always been this way
Sometimes I wish I never opened up my eyes
Because sometimes what is right and wrong is really just a lie
I don’t care what you say, it’s untrue, anyway
I see this will never change, no, not any day
This world’s full of cruelty and sickening iniquity
Still you keep on asking me why I want to be alone
So jaded, I am like a drone
So can’t you see why I push away everything?
All I have to say
I’ve always been this way
Why does everyone think that I shouldn’t be alone?
Can’t you see that I don’t need people to feel at home?
No one should be worrying for me, you see
I’m okay, I’m okay, because I’ve always been this way
I’ve been alone for all these years
But I wouldn’t want it any other way
Why does everyone think that I shouldn’t be alone?
Can’t you see that I don’t need people to feel at home?
No one should be worrying for me, you see
I’m okay, I’m okay, because I’ve always been this way
But when I fall down
I don’t need anyone to come running to my aid
I’m okay, I swear I’m fine
In this is life of mine, I’m fine with it this way
I swear I’m fine with it this way
I swear I’m okay
Because all these rampant images are burned into my mind
You don’t care what I say, you’ll do it anyway
I guess I don’t care either, so have a nice, egregious day
I would have never got your cruelty, your sickening iniquity
But time has made me realize that truth is conditional
I’m feeling oppositional, incivility
Now I don’t care about anything
See, but that’s okay
I’ve always been this way
Why does everyone think that I shouldn’t be alone?
Can’t you see that I don’t need people to feel at home?
No one should be worrying for me, you see
I’m okay, I’m okay, because I’ve always been this way
Sometimes I wish I never opened up my eyes
Because sometimes what is right and wrong is really just a lie
I don’t care what you say, it’s untrue, anyway
I see this will never change, no, not any day
This world’s full of cruelty and sickening iniquity
Still you keep on asking me why I want to be alone
So jaded, I am like a drone
So can’t you see why I push away everything?
All I have to say
I’ve always been this way
Why does everyone think that I shouldn’t be alone?
Can’t you see that I don’t need people to feel at home?
No one should be worrying for me, you see
I’m okay, I’m okay, because I’ve always been this way
I’ve been alone for all these years
But I wouldn’t want it any other way
Why does everyone think that I shouldn’t be alone?
Can’t you see that I don’t need people to feel at home?
No one should be worrying for me, you see
I’m okay, I’m okay, because I’ve always been this way
But when I fall down
I don’t need anyone to come running to my aid
I’m okay, I swear I’m fine
In this is life of mine, I’m fine with it this way
I swear I’m fine with it this way
I swear I’m okay
