I'd rather walk alone Than stand in a row I'd line up everything I own Decide what should stay and should go This life was mine to choose Yearning to wander through and through At times I've been battered and bruised But I'm still breathing in my youth Can't you see I'm sorry that I Wasn't better at being Who you wanted me to be I've been living in lightning For what seems like eternity You wear these brooding ghosts Tighter and tighter round your throat They're weighing you down like a stone They might never let you go Can't you see I'm sorry that I Wasn't better at being Who you wanted me to be I've been living in lightning For what seems like eternity I've been living in lightning For what seems like eternity
