Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been on my own now
Don't know what they can't see
On a lonely road I know now
'stand me i've been on my own now
Don't know what they can't see
On a lonely road I know now now
I've been on my own for too long now
I've been on this road for too long now
I've been on my own for too long now
I've been on this road for too long now
Ya shout out all my friends
So I can make brand new hit's
It's just me myself and I these days
I try to reminisce
Used to be the laughing stock
I guess that those investments flourished
I see the way they changed
When I blew up the calls all pour in
Too many lonely nights
Making music all the time this is my life
Don't really know much else
Never doubted myself i don't mean to boast
But the music grow the path that I chose
Is better than most
I could've been young and dumb
But I had these goals
Applied myself that's how it goes
I've been on my own for too long now
I've been on this road for too long now
I've been on my own for too long now
I've been on this road
They don't understand me
I've been on my own now
Don't know what they can't see
On a lonely road I know now
'stand me i've been on my own now
Don't know what they can't see
On a lonely road I know now now
I've been on my own for too long now
I've been on this road for too long now
I've been on my own for too long now
I've been on this road for too long now
Don't take it personal if I don't reply
I'm busy lost in these deep nights
I've seen the drift in my space ship
In the cosmos on a day trip
I waste time so blissfully
My destination a mystery
Traverse through this universe
Don't wanna return to Earth
My serenity and solitude
It puts me in a calmer mood
Don't bother me when I'm inside my zone
And I won't bother you
I'm better off without approval
Don't need you to set me straight
Don't tell me that you miss me
'cause you never knew me anyway
I've been on my own for too long now
I've been on this road for too long now
I've been on my own for too long now
I've been on this road
They don't understand me
I've been on my own now
Don't know what they can't see
On a lonely road I know now
'stand me i've been on my own now
Don't know what they can't see
On a lonely road I know now now
I've been on my own for too long now
I've been on this road for too long now
I've been on my own for too long now
I've been on this road for too long now
