you see the real me

all by myself

Doing this by myself
Going to walk through this life alone
No one with their opinion or a voice
No one spewing words that hurt
No rumors to ruminate
Going to avoid the mess of people
No more people around that complicate

With people, you cannot do right
But you're certainly blamed wrong
Truth has always been the song I've sang
It's gotten me through the fear
It's helped me to overcome the pain
Even when their speculations come raining down
Day after day...

I've been used and forgotten
Blamed, but maintained my innocence
Cut, burnt and brought on physical pain
But their lies aren't worth new scars
Too many times I've stood behind their bars of blame

The winter can be miserable when I'm alone
Days when I stare at the phone, begging to hear a ring
But I'd rather be alone
I'd rather be my own worst enemy
And at the same time a friend
Then be caught between the jaws of someone who quit loving

Ruminate
Going to avoid the mess of people
No more people around that complicate

With people, you cannot do right
But you're certainly blamed wrong
Truth has always been the song I've sang
It's gotten me through the fear
It's helped me to overcome the pain
Even when their speculations come raining down
Day after day...

I've been used and forgotten
Blamed, but maintained my innocence
Cut, burnt and brought on physical pain
But their lies aren't worth new scars
Too many times I've stood behind their bars of blame

The winter can be miserable when I'm alone
Days when I stare at the phone, begging to hear a ring
But I'd rather be alone
I'd rather be my own worst enemy
And at the same time a friend
Then be caught between the jaws of someone who quit loving
