[Verse 1]
I used to think that love was fleeting
You'll just end up hurt
But it's a cosmic game of meetings
That may never work and I think
Maybe I deserve a little more
And life will get easier
But I don't believe in love anymore
Don't bargain with my worth, 'cause
[Chorus]
I don't mind to live all on my own
And I never did
And I don't care to feel like I belong
But you always did
[Verse 2]
I always thought my heart was freezing
And I'm just cold
But I refuse to fucking suffer
Just to feel whole now I know
Maybe I can find the one
The more I'm with myself
Of thinking I can't love anyone
Even if it's the devil himself
[Chorus]
I don't mind to live all on my own
And I never did
And I don't care to feel like I belong
But you always did
[Bridge]
And I feel it in my bones
Inside myself is where I belong
Maybe I don't care anymore
And that can be the truth
But I'm not gonna try anymore
To fall in love with you
[Chorus]
I don't mind to live all on my own
And I don't care to feel like I belong
But you always did and
I don't mind to live all on my own
And I never did
[Outro]
And I don't care to feel like I belong
But you always did
