Alone Time

There's not much here for me
When I'm here, I don't feel free
But when I'm there, I feel alive
It's what I need to survive

No offense, you're all great
But it really is too late to change my personality
It's just my reality
And I do not blame you for questioning what I do
It doesn't matter, well, technically, it matters to me
But it shouldn't matter to you

I don't need any substance
In order to feel high, I can't stop you from asking why
Why I choose to live this way?
It's no one's fault but mine
And trust me, I'll be fine as long as I have my alone time
My alone time

I'm still in love with myself, with my purpose
With my health and with the goal I have in mind
Just the thought helps me unwind
I don't doubt you're the same, picture with a different frame
If you won't tell I will not ask
What you hide behind the mask

I don't really have a clue, despite what I think is true
I'm so pretentious
While I might be pretentious, I'm still no better than you

I don't need any substance in order to feel high
I can't stop you from asking why
Why I choose to live this way?
It's no one's fault but mine
And trust me, I'll be fine as long as I have my alone time
My alone time

When I'm all alone
When I'm on my own
It doesn't matter what I do
Because no matter what
As long as that door's shut
Not once do I wish that I could be like you

Sadly, I know it's wrong
And I knew it all along
I just thought it would be nice to not have to pay the price
You are someone I adore
What do you think I'm alive for?
But you're an individual
You have your own schedule

We are both mostly free
There's so many sights to see
It isn't worth it, I mean it might be worth it
If those sights could come to me

I won't pretend I'm perfect
I'm not even close, I've screwed up more often than most
But in our darkest moments, together will we find
We'll help each other climb
I'll help you reach your prime
I'll make sure you can find me when I'm done with my alone time
