[Intro]
It's stranger than fiction
How you've decayed
It must be so lonely
Lost within your ways

[Verse 1]
You're born alone, you die alone
The rest is yours to fill the gap
The world goes on without you here
Adjust or just collapse

[Chorus]
Is this what you wanted to be
Alone standing by yourself
Is this all you wanted to be
Or was that a cry for help

[Hook]
By yourself
By yourself
By yourself

[Verse 2]
Verbal grenades
You throw in vain
I can't believe you'd stoop so low
Of all the things you took away
I miss my mind the most
[Chorus]
Is this what you wanted to be
Alone standing by yourself
Is this all you wanted to be
Or was that a cry for help

[Hook]
By yourself
By yourself
By yourself

[Solo]

[Chorus]
Is this what you wanted to be
Alone standing by yourself
Is this all you wanted to be
Or was that a cry for help!

[Chorus]
Is this what you wanted to be
Alone standing by yourself
Is this all you wanted to be
Or was that a cry for help!

[Outro]
It's stranger than fiction
How you've decayed
It must be so lonely
Lost within your ways
