Lyrics for Song: On My Own
Lyrics for Album: Alanis [1991]
Why do I feel it's all up to me to see that everything's right
And it's how it should be?
Why don't they just leave me alone?
I've got to prove I can
Little girl with stars in her eyes
They've got her all figured out
And there's nowhere to hide
Why can't they all see who I am?
When will they understand?
It may take some time
They don't know how it feels because they can't read my mind
They always say I'm too young
And they feel they should help me
But I can make it all alone
Out here on my own.
Every day I feel so in demand, and all I wish I could find
Is a place I can land
One day I'll feel comfort inside 'cause I'll know
Who I am.
I can hold the line
If I know in the end that I won't be left behind
I don't regret what I've done
I don't think you can blame me
Now I'm standin' all alone
Out here on my own.
I'm not thinking 'bout leavin' home
But I need to be on my own
Doesn't mean I have a heart of stone
I won't even ask them why
I can't ever let them see me cry
Here I'm standing all alone
Out here on my own...
Out here on my own.
Feeling lost in a world full of lies
I can't help thinkin' that love is just passin' me by
Hold on to what I believe and keep an open hand.
Can I have it all
If there's no one to turn to when I stumble and fall?
Is there a secret I need because no one has told me?
All alone.
It may take some time
'Cause I know how it feels to have a lot on your mind
I'll never feel all alone
'Cause I know that I have...me.
Now I can make it all alone
Out here on my own.
