Avril Lavigne Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's the first time I ever felt this lonely
I wish someone could cure this pain
It's funny when you think it's gonna work out
'Til you chose weed over me, you're so lame

I thought you were cool until the point
But up until the point you didn't call me
When you said, you would
Finally figured out you're all the same
Always coming up with some kind of story

Every time I try to make you smile
You're always feeling sorry for yourself
Every time I try to make you laugh
You can't, you're too tough, you think, you're loveless
Is that too much that I'm asking for?

Thought you'd come around when I ignored you
So I thought you'd have the decency to change
But babe, I guess you didn't take that warning
'Cause I'm not about to look at your face again

Can't you see that you lie to yourself
You can't see the world through a mirror
It won't be too late when the smoke clears
'Cause I, I am still here

But every time I try to make you smile
You'd always grow up feeling sorry for yourself
Every time I try to make you laugh
You stand like a stone, alone in your zone
Is it too much that I'm asking for?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Can't find where I am lying here
Alone I fear, afraid of the dark
No one to claim, alone again
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Can't you see that you lie to yourself
You can't see the world through a mirror
It won't be too late when the smoke clears
'Cause I, I am still here

Every time I try to make you smile
You're always feeling sorry for yourself
Every time I try to make you laugh




You can't, you're too tough, you think you're loveless
It was too much that I'm asking for

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Avril Lavigne's song "Alone" describe the pain and loneliness someone feels after being let down by a person they cared for deeply. The singer describes the situation where she thought things would work out with her partner until he chose to prioritize smoking weed over their relationship. From then on, she realized that he was just like every other person, always coming up with an excuse. She tries to make him smile or laugh, but he's always too consumed with feeling sorry for himself and thinking he's unlovable. The singer then tells him that he's lying to himself and that he can't see the world through a mirror. While the singer is still present and willing to be there for him, she questions if it's too much to ask for him to change his ways.


The lyrics depict a painful ending of a relationship where one person is left feeling alone and abandoned by someone they loved. The singer expresses their disappointment and tries to convince their love interest to see the truth about their behavior and how it affects others. The lyrics also highlight the importance of communication and how one's actions can affect others' feelings. The song is a reminder that a relationship takes effort and commitment from both parties, and without it, it's impossible for it to work out.


Line by Line Meaning

It's the first time I ever felt this lonely
I have never felt so alone and isolated before


I wish someone could cure this pain
I desire for someone to take my pain away


It's funny when you think it's gonna work out 'Til you chose weed over me, you're so lame
It's ironic how I thought our relationship was going well until you picked drugs over me, which is disappointing


I thought you were cool until the point But up until the point you didn't call me When you said, you would Finally figured out you're all the same Always coming up with some kind of story
I considered you to be impressive, however, you failed to keep your promise of calling me which made me realize that you are no different from anyone else who makes excuses


Every time I try to make you smile You're always feeling sorry for yourself Every time I try to make you laugh You can't, you're too tough, you think, you're loveless Is that too much that I'm asking for?
Whenever I attempt to cheer you up, you always pity yourself and are incapable of finding joy, it seems that you have a hard exterior and believe that you're incapable of love, is it wrong to request this from you?


Thought you'd come around when I ignored you So I thought you'd have the decency to change But babe, I guess you didn't take that warning 'Cause I'm not about to look at your face again
I believed that if I ignored you, you'd realize your mistake and change your ways, but you didn't listen to my advice, thus, I don't wish to see you again


Can't you see that you lie to yourself You can't see the world through a mirror It won't be too late when the smoke clears 'Cause I, I am still here
It's apparent to me that you're deceiving yourself and unable to view the world clearly, but once your haze subsides, don't worry because I'll still be present


Every time I try to make you smile You'd always grow up feeling sorry for yourself Every time I try to make you laugh You stand like a stone, alone in your zone Is it too much that I'm asking for?
Whenever I endeavor to make you smile, you act like a victim, and whenever I try to make you happy, you remain emotionless, it seems like I'm only requesting too much from you


Can't find where I am lying here Alone I fear, afraid of the dark No one to claim, alone again Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm struggling to locate myself while I'm lying here, and I feel frightened and vulnerable in the darkness with no one to hold onto


Every time I try to make you smile You're always feeling sorry for yourself Every time I try to make you laugh You can't, you're too tough, you think you're loveless It was too much that I'm asking for
Whenever I endeavor to cheer you up, you resort to self-pity, and whenever I attempt to make you laugh, you seem incapable of experiencing happiness, was my request too much for you?

Lyrics:

Chill out, what you yelling for
Lay back, it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be, you will see
I like you the way you are
When we're driving in your car
And you're talking to me one on one but you've become
Somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back like you can't relax
You're trying to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me
Why do you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
And promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
No, no, no
You come over unannounced
Dressed up like you're something else
Where you are ain't where it's at you see
You're making me
Laugh out when you strike your pose
Take off all your preppy clothes
You know you're not fooling anyone
When you've become
Somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back like you can't relax
You're trying to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me
Why do you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
And promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
Chill out, what you yelling for?
Lay back, it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be
You will see
Somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back like you can't relax
You're trying to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me
Why do you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
And promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
No, no
Why do you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
And promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
No, no, no
