"On My Own" lyrics

"On My Own"

I got time to kill, to do what I will
Now that you went away
I nearly lost my mind but now I'm feeling fine
I hope that you're not okay

I didn't know what to tell you
I didn't know what to say to you
But now you're gone and it's on
I'm up all night long
With friends that wanted to stay

I got time to kill, to do what I will
Now that you went away
I nearly lost my mind but now I'm feeling fine
I hope that you're not okay

I didn't know what to tell you
I didn't know what to say to you
I'm having myself a blast now
Thank god that I remember how

Your folks don't know a thing about me
And your friends keep saying that I'm uncool and they're right
I put in overtime to make you mine
Convince you not to hate me
Should've known I'd be better off on my own

Now and then I talk to girls again
When they listen to what I say
I think about the time I spent
Wasted on you and me

I didn't know what to tell you
I didn't know what to say to you
I'm better off without you
I hope that things are worse for you

Your folks don't know a thing about me
And your friends keep saying that I'm uncool and they're right
I put in overtime to make you mine
Convince you not to hate me
Should've known I'd be better off on my own
Should've known I'd be better off on my own

Should've known I'd be better off on my own
(Should've known I'd be better off on my own)
Should've known I'd be better off on my own
(Should've known I'd be better off on my own)
Should've known I'd be better off on my own
(Should've known I'd be better off on my own)
Should've known I'd be better off on my own
