I End Up Alone

How much would you do to feel wanted?

Holding onto something, then say it's light hearted

While you're laying in a house that is rented

And you know they are paying a mortgage

I painted the walls though I know they will fine me

Running the water because I am thirsty

Paying it all back then blame the economy

'Cause I can't admit to be loved costs me money

I'm the other apartment

Loved then discarded

A moment of excitement

A relapse when you're heightened

I'd do anything for this though

A rented house isn't a home:

I end up alone

I end up alone

I end up alone

I end up alone

A rented apartment alone in the city

Numerous guests in beds after parties

Though I know that you dream of a townhouse

Maybe Toronto, LA or Chicago?

I know my head is self-aware of its problems

But the child in me can't stop them

Maybe it's something I got from my mother

'Cause I pay rent like a permanent lover

I'm the other apartment

Loved then discarded

A moment of excitement

A relapse when you're heightened

I'd do anything for this though

A rented house isn't a home:

I end up alone

I end up alone

I end up alone

I end up alone

I end up alone

I'll kiss you a little harder

So we can stay out till it's darker

And I beg you're thinking of me

While you're pulling on her jeans

And I'll do anything for you to see me

For you to wake up and want me:

Sell five years for a perfect body

Let you make me feel dirty

But I'm rented for a moment

It's a lease I won't end up owning

I've built this house I'm now alone in

Maybe I'm better off alone (Better on my own)

I end up alone (Better on my own)

I end up alone (Better on my own)

I end up alone (Better on my own)

I end up alone (Better on my own)

I end up alone (Better on my own)

I end up alone (Better on my own)

I end up alone (Better on my own)

I end up alone (Better on my own)

I end up alone (Better on my own)
