Lyrics

Protoman

[Intro]

What?

C'mon

Go

[Chorus]

I stand alone

But I will not be broken

I stand alone

The truest words I've spoken

[Verse 1]

Blood runs thin

I stand proof of this

Where is my family

When I need them?

So alone

I will make sure I'm never forgotten

I see clearly

You are my enemy

[Chorus]

I stand alone

But I will not be broken

I stand alone

The truest words I've spoken

I stand alone

But I will not be broken

I stand alone

[Verse 2]

And now my dreams are slowly escaping me!

I don't need anyone

Me!

I don't need you

I'm okay with dying alone

Dig my grave

I'm okay with dying alone

I hope you feel the same

[Interlude]

Move

Go

[Breakdown]

Bide my time

I'm gonna die, you're gonna die

No one cares

Let them take me now

I'm already dead

[Verse 3]

I don't need anyone

I don't need you

I'm okay with dying alone

All I want is power and control

I'm okay with dying alone

My cold soul

[Pre-Chorus]

What?

C'mon

[Chorus]

(I stand alone)

I stand alone

But I will not be broken

Yeah, I stand alone

The truest words I've spoken

I stand alone

But I will not be broken

Yeah, I stand alone

The truest words I've spoken
