[Verse 1]
Chance is I haven't learned my lesson
’Cause I know that I keep them all around
Just to hold me, just to hold me
Risk averse, never seem to learn that it can only hurt
Keep them all around, just to hold me
I'd rather just be lonely

[Pre-Chorus]
In all our arms we hide
So scared of solo nights
One half of how we should be

[Chorus]
I'd rather be lonely than be alone in love
I’d rather be lonely than be alone in love
'Cause I got my time and I found out what was lost
I'd rather be lonely than be alone in love

[Verse 2]
Godforsaken, only 'cause I never leave
What has been broken, living in the sheets
So they can love me, I'd rather just be lonely
Comfort first, altering my being
Just to be your girl, killing all the ways
That we've been moving
It's not like you see through me
[Pre-Chorus]
In all our arms we hide
So scared of solo nights
One half of how we should be

[Chorus]
I'd rather be lonely than be alone in love
I’d rather be lonely than be alone in love
’Cause I got my time and I found out what was lost
I'd rather be lonely than be alone in love

[Chorus]
I’d rather be lonely than be alone in love
I'd rather be lonely than be alone in love
'Cause I got my time and I found out what was lost
I'd rather be lonely than be alone in love
I’d rather be lonely than be alone in love
I'd rather be lonely than be alone in love
'Cause I got my time and I found out what was lost
I'd rather be lonely than be alone in love

[Outro]
Out of mind, I saw myself objectively
Always needing someone else completing me
My only weakness was feeling
That I can't make myself happy
Out of mind, I saw myself objectively
Always needing someone else completing me
My only weakness was feeling
That I can't make myself happy
