I couldn't ignite a single spark
So I dance with shadows in the dark
Stopped trying to make my mark
I am carving out my lonely arc

Now I can see through the fading lights (fading lights)
Hollow promises and bitter lies
Sweet "hello"s and sweeter "goodbye"s (goodbyes)
There is always more than meets the eyes (yeah)

Oh, oh, oh

Now my life feels like a lie
Broken dreams, away they fly (fly)
Echoes of my unheard cry
It's just me, myself and I (me, myself and I)

Tried to fit in for so long
Told myself that I belong
But I was wrong, all along (all along)
Here I am, forever a-la-la-la-lone (la-la-lone)

Me, myself and I
Forever alone

I couldn't rise above the rest
And show them that I was the best
I heard calls I should've missed
Answered them and felt so blessed

Now I can see through the fading lights
Hollow promises and bitter lies
Sweet hellos and sweeter goodbyes
There is always more than meets the eyes

Oh, oh, oh

And my life feels like a lie
Broken dreams, away they fly (fly)
Echoes of my unheard cry
It's just me, myself and I (I... I...)

Tried to fit in for so long
Told myself that I belong (I belong)
But I was wrong, all along
Here I am, forever a-la-la-la-lone (la-la-lone)

Forever alone

I spent my life chasing the world
Only to watch the truth unfurl
Cut out the noise, turned off my phone
And I found the magic in the bone
The cries fade, the lies grow thin
And I hear a voice deep within
Through the chaos, I finally see
The only one I need is me (yeah)


I laugh out loud at the absurdity
As I shake hands with the real me

First I perform solo, a cappella
Then add some piano and bass
Then let the strings take control
And let the drums break the glass

The symphony muted for so long
Now roars and soars through the air
And I join in with new melodies
And here I am - my own choir

I smile and turn the volume up
I let the music fill my lonely world
I don't try to fit in the crowd anymore
I have found my home offshore (home offshore)

I am better off forever a-la-la-lone (yeah)
I am better off forever a-la-la-lone (alone)

Forever Alone....Arpan Amplified
