Better Alone

I've walked through the valleys, I've been on my own Found solace in silence, learned to call it home But there's a kind of heartache that cuts to the bone When you're in the wrong arms, yet still feel alone Being alone will never cause as much loneliness As a love that feels like emptiness I'd rather face the quiet nights, than a heart that's torn Being alone is better than being with the wrong one I've seen the smiles that hide the tears, behind closed doors Heard the whispers of regret, echoing through the floors It's a heavy kind of sadness, that nobody sees When you're bound to a love that brings you to your knees Being alone will never cause as much loneliness As a love that feels like emptiness I'd rather face the quiet nights, than a heart that's torn Being alone is better than being with the wrong one In the silence, I find strength, in the quiet, I find peace In my own company, my soul finds release I'd rather walk this path alone, with my heart still whole Than to lose myself in someone who'll never know Being alone will never cause as much loneliness As a love that feels like emptiness I'd rather face the quiet nights, than a heart that's torn Being alone is better than being with the wrong one So here I stand, unafraid, to be alone In this space, I've carved out, where my heart can grow For loneliness is fleeting, but the wrong love lingers on Being alone is better than being with the wrong one
