[Verse 1]
They say avoidance never heals but this sure feels good
Gonna stay here a couple more minutes than I should
Gonna take a couple shots and numb my feelings
Instead of dealing with my problems, I'll just stare at the ceilings
Avoidance never heals but this sure feels good
[Pre-Chorus]
I know I said I'd stop before I drown
But I don't like the thought of coming down
[Chorus]
Yeah, I'm a loner
And I like it that way
I like a dark room
With nobody but pain
And I don't need permission to feel sad
And don't need no witness to have my back
'Cause I'm a loner
And I like it that way
And I like it that way
[Verse 2]
I'm always by myself 'cause that's what feels right
And when I'm in a crowdеd room, I try to stay out of sight
Always show up to the party hours early
'Cause I'm borеd of everything by 7:30
I'm always by myself 'cause that's what feels right
[Pre-Chorus]
I know I said I'd stop before I drown
Just took a couple pills, now I'm on the ground
[Chorus]
Yeah, I'm a loner
And I like it that way
I like a dark room
With nobody but pain
And I don't need permission to feel sad
And I don't need no witness to have my back
'Cause I'm a loner
And I like it that way
And I like it that way
[Bridge]
Yeah, I'm a loner
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, ayy-ayy
[Chorus]
Yeah, I'm a loner
And I like it that way (That way)
I like a dark room
With nobody but pain
And I don't need permission to feel sad
And I don't need no witness to have my back
'Cause I'm a loner
And I like it that way
And I like it that way

EUPHORIA. Magazine quotes Maggie saying:
’Loner’ is about feeling alone even when there are people around. It’s about coming to terms with it and being comfortable in your alone-ness and giving yourself permission to feel sad if that is how you feel. Everyone has those moments, especially this year...
