As it's passing by
All the time, we're running
It's a constant climb
As we forget the things we know
♪
So where do we all go this time?
You said that I could rest awhile?
Did I get the feeling wrong?
♪
All we do is wait in line
Hoping just to lose our time
When you're on your own
You were on your own
♪
The streetlights on again
I walk without a name
Strangely beloved, yet unrequited
Do you feel like you missed it?
There's safety in your eyes
To walk without disguise
I was wrong and you were right
There's no need to lie
You're giving it away this time
How could you ignore your mind?
When you were on your own
You were on your own
You're giving it away this time
How could you ignore your mind?
When you were on your own
You were on your own

I'll be careful with the soft spots, I'll be smart
If you're careful with my heart
Everybody gets lost somehow
It's where we were meant to start
Now I was right and you were wrong
Every single night I sleep alone
You see some men can't face defeat
Some let it leak into their bones
But not me
I'm not scared of the things that I love
It's with them that I sleep at night, when the devil comes
Listen!
It was there right from the start, all along
(It was there right from the start, all along)
It was there right from the start, all along
I'm giving it away this time
How could you ignore your mind
When you were on your own
You were on your own
Don't throw it all away this time
Only just to lose your mind
When you were on your own
When you were on your own
