I’d rather sleep with the nightmares
Than let you lay here and break my heart again
Oh, I was born to be lonely
It's crystal clear
Like a diamond chandelier

The crowd wants to see me cry
In the mirror
With a glass full of tears
I toast…

I drink to lonely nights
Drowning wasted years
All by myself
Leave my heart on the shelf
I drink to raise a toast
To the romance in my head
Life is a ball
I’ll keep dancing alone
Alone

I’ll pour a drink for my shadow
Blow off some smoke then I’ll watch it disappear
Just bought a ticket to nowhere
Yesterday’s calling but i don’t wanna hear
I drink to lonely nights
Drowning wasted years
All by myself
Leave my heart on the shelf
I drink to raise a toast
To the romance in my head
Life is a ball
I’ll keep dancing alone
Alone

Life is a ball
I’ll keep dancing alone
Alone
Ohhh
