[Verse 1]
Yeah, yeah
Know the game, know the game, know it so well
Wanna win, wanna keep your head as well
How much can you take?
We're gonna find out
I just wanna be by myself
Know the game, know the game, know it so well
Make sure you know yourself, know them as well
Do they really give a fuck?
I guess we'll find out
I just wanna be by myself
I just wanna be by myself
Yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
It's far too late to act like you'll be there, be there
And it's far too late to act like I still care, still care
Cause I know what this is
So have no fear, no fear
Your talk is worthless than my time
And I just want to be by myself
Yeah, yeah
I just want to be by myself

[Verse 2]
Know your heart, know your mind, know your soul now
Remind yourself, say it out loud
It's just you, just me, just us now
I just want to be by myself
Know your heart, know your mind, know your soul now
What you hold close, and what you can't tell
You tell it, you tell it, you tell it so well
I just want to be by myself
I just want to be by myself
[Post-Chorus]
And if you're pushed under, can you swim?
And if you're pushed under, can you swim?
And if you're pushed under, can you swim?
And if you're pushed under, can you swim?

[Chorus]
And it's far too late to act like you'll be there, be there
And it's far too late to act like I still care, still care
Cause I know what this is
So have no fear, no fear
Your talk is worthless then my time
And I just want to be by myself
I just want to be by myself
I just want to be by myself
I just want to be by myself

[Bridge]
When I act like we're good
We can play with sin
Probably wouldn't mind if we don't speak again
You manipulate me, call yourself a friend
Bite my hand, I cut you off like a split end
You think you're winning now?
Oh, oh, oh you think you're winning now?
Oh, oh, oh you think you're winning now?
[Post-Bridge]
And it's far too late to act like I still care
That you're never gonna be there, you're never gonna be there

[Chorus]
And it's far too late to act like you'll be there, be there
And it's far too late to act like I still care, still care
Cause I know what this is
So have no fear, no fear
Your talk is worthless then my time
And I just want to be by myself
Yeah, yeah
