If I must live alone, I'd rather do it by myself

For I've never known a mirror to shake it's head and turn and walk away

Lookin' at myself and all the things that I believe in

Left dying in the silence of the things you never say.



I'm sleeping by myself, somehow I've never had you

Oh, I wish I knew the reason, I'm sure there's an answer to it all

Talking to myself is something else that I've grown used to

One-sided conversations with a narrow-minded wall.



Talk to me, oh, can't you see

That I can't bear to give my dream to someone

Who would stand and let it fall.



A prisoner to myself, I'm the only one that holds me

In one-sided conversations with a narrow-minded wall.

In one-sided conversations with a narrow-minded wall.
