Always on My Own Lyrics

I was always on my own

Look in my eyes and see the bomb
Fun and nonsense, on and on
Tell me no lie, under your thumb
Back to back, tick tock has begun

Look in my eyes and see the bomb
Fun and nonsense, on and on
Tell me no lie, under your thumb
Back to back, tick tock has begun

I am what you want
I am what you're not
I am what you want
I am what you're not

I want to live my way of living
I want to live my way of living
I want to live my way of living

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
