"Dying Alone" lyrics

"Dying Alone"

Lonely child looking for love
But the well was dry
When the bucket came up
So I learned fast how to make it out on my own
I took my heart, built a wall
Filled in the cracks with some alcohol
Tryna be the toughest girl you've ever known

You could say I'd settled on
Dying alone

I was ready to move up in the mountains
Build up my fortress high
I'd have dogs and I'd ride horses
But I'd sleep alone at night
I'd lock the gate, toss out the key
But you had other plans for me
When you came and stormed this castle
Made of stone, and made it a home
For a girl dead set on dying alone

I'd been hurt worse than bad
I didn't trust a soul with the heart I had
But you had a heart for the kinda love I'd need
You broke the wall, brick by brick
You knocked the boards off and let the sun in
Showed me how good letting someone in can be

I was ready to move up in the mountains
Build up my fortress high
I'd have dogs and I'd ride horses
But I'd sleep alone at night
I'd lock the gate, toss out the key
But you had other plans for me
When you came and stormed this castle
Made of stone, and made it a home
For a girl dead set on dying alone
Dying alone

Now we live up in the mountains
Built up our fortress high
We got dogs and we ride horses
And we don't sleep alone at night
We'll be side by side 6 feet deep
'Cause you had other plans for me
When you came and stormed this castle
Made of stone, and made it a home
For a girl dead set on dying alone, dying alone

Dying alone
(Ooo, Ooo)
(Mmm)
Dying alone
Lonely child looking for love
Lonely child looking for love
