"stay alone" lyrics

The sunlight on my skin
The breeze thru my hair
I wish I could be with you
If I could be anywhere
Sometimes
I close my eyes
And imagine that I'm there
Somewhere I matter to you
But life's not very fair

So I'll stay alone
I don't want wanna rock the boat
And blow up your phone
The other kids are outside playing ball
But I'll stay at home
Growing up other people's sentences felt like
They were made of sticks and stones
I guess people like me are better off alone

I been pushed around since I could remember
I wish you could respect me for the things I provide
And when anger and sadness decide to subside
Do you regret the way you treated me while we were alive?

Who put that food on your plate
Who stayed up talking on the phone when we shouldn't be awake
Up late
Letting our trauma bare its teeth
Fighting with each other didn't see you for weeks
I'm alone

The sunlight on your skin
The breeze thru your hair
I wish I could be with you
If I could be anywhere
Sometimes
I close my eyes
And imagine that I'm there
Somewhere I matter to you
But life's not very fair

So I'll stay alone
I don't want wanna rock the boat
And blow up your phone
The other kids are outside playing ball
But I'll stay at home
Growing up other people's sentences felt like
They were made of sticks and stones
I guess people like me are better off alone
