Being Alone Testo

I finally got my feet wet
Can I commit to this rising sea or am I coming home?
I feel like I got a freight train hit down on me
But I'm somehow hanging on
I lay awake at night and dream of things, but they can't see
Well, I try to reconcile all the plans they've made for me

And they tell me realize my freedom while I'm on my own
But there's nothing free about being alone
I have tried temptation, someone to have and to hold
I've tried medication, to fill the void in my soul
I've tried contemplation, I thought I could think myself home
But there's nothing free about being alone

Most folks can change their philosophy
To get a leg up in the game
Me, I'm just stuck here with what I believe
And it ain't got no fancy name
I don't trust myself with life's beautiful things
My stone hands and heart can break whatever it builds(?!)

And they tell me realize my freedom while I'm on my own
But there's nothing free about being alone

I have tried temptation, someone to have and to hold
I've tried medication, to fill the void in my soul
I've tried contemplation, I thought I could think myself home
But there's nothing free about being alone

I have tried temptation, someone to have and to hold
I've tried medication, to fill the void in my soul
I've tried contemplation, I thought I could think myself home
But there's nothing free about being alone
