[Verse 1]
Got a big tattoo in Colorado Springs
Jumped straight in the river just to feel the sting
Of a permanent decision on my fleeting physical body
Took my time getting up to the west coast
Read theory in the woods, drove solo
My Corolla hates me a whole bunch for all those back roads, potholes

[Chorus]
Being alone is freedom to me now
Picking up stones to pray to, I think me and God have the same roots
How can you call if home if you can't take it with you?

[Verse 2]
I surrendered my sword to a midnight sky
The quiet composed itself and asked me why I've been fighting
Then the еarth cracked once and gave mе a bolt of lightning
She says, "You are everything you want to be
You are powerless and powerful by the grace of me
Come home, come home"

[Chorus]
Being alone is freedom to me now
I sit with myself in darkness, and when I can't find where the light is
I look for a beautiful thing and recognize a piece of it in me
[Bridge]
It is through love you are sustained
You are self-contained
It is through love you are sustained
You are self-contained
It is through love you are sustained
You are self-contained
It is through love you are sustained
You are self-contained
It is through love you are sustained
You are self-contained
It is through love you are sustained
You are self-contained
