Meant to Be Alone

Verse

I been holdin’ on to people

Who just let my hands fall loose

Every promise felt so hopeful

Till they showed me it ain’t true

And I’m tired of second chances

Feelin’ like the one to blame

Every time I give my heart out

I get silence back again

Chorus

So maybe I’m just meant to be alone

Maybe love ain’t written in my bones

‘Cause every time I try, I end up breakin’ on my own

And it hurts to keep pretendin’ I’m okay

When I’m cryin’ every night until the day

Maybe I’m just meant to be alone

Maybe I’m better off alone… anyway

Verse

People say that “someone’s coming”

But they’ve been sayin’ that for years

All I ever get is almost

Followed by a trail of tears

And I wish that I could feel enough

To believe the words they say

But I’m tired of bein’ hopeful

When hope just walks away

Chorus

So maybe I’m just meant to be alone

Maybe love ain’t written in my bones

‘Cause every time I try, I end up breakin’ on my own

And it hurts to keep pretendin’ I’m okay

When I’m cryin’ every night until the day

Maybe I’m just meant to be alone

Maybe I’m better off alone… anyway

Outro

Yeah… maybe I’m meant to be alone

‘Cause no one ever stays.
