rather be lonely

David Archuleta

I stopped saying, Good morning
I stopped sleeping every night in your bed
You still make me breakfast, I start to resent it
I think we d be better off as friends

I do this every time
Cause of what I ve learned all my life

That we need to talk meant you need to listen
Those three little words always came with conditions
It s not that I don t want you to hold me
But they told me that it doesn t matter if I have an opinion
So now I m avoidant and scared of commitment
Cause if someone s love means they control me
I d rather be lonely

You could make me feel important
Could be patient, secure and supportive
You could be all that I ve wanted
but then the worst part is
That I know it has to end

I do this every time
Cause of what I ve learned all my life

That we need to talk meant you need to listen
Those three little words always came with conditions
It s not that I don t want you to hold me
But they told me that it doesn t matter if I have an opinion
So now I m avoidant and scared of commitment
Cause if someone s love means they control me
I d rather be lonely (Lonely)
I d rather be lonely (Yeah)

Cause if someone s love means they control me
I d rather be lonely
