[Chorus: Ben Zaidi]
When I was alone
When I was alone
When I was alone
I was free
I was free
Born, at once I was ashamed
Co-opting my mother's name
We’ve come, we've come too far to change
[Verse 1: Ben Zaidi]
Nobody's gonna save me, from myself
She said you’ll never find what you're looking for (looking for)
Anywhere you are, you're trying to leave
If you spend your life standing by the door (by the door)
Only means you'll be the first to freeze
[Verse 2: Ben Zaidi]
I saw you back in autumn
You said I looked exhausted, that I looked half dead
And I just laughed it off, but I wish that I had said
I used to think that I just wanted more (wanted more)
But now I think it's my disease
And I can't live with it anymore…
[Chorus: Ben Zaidi]
When I was alone
When I was alone
When I was alone
I was free
I was free
Born, at once I was ashamed
Co-opting my mother's name
We've come, we’ve come too far to change
[Outro: Ben Zaidi]
Nobody’s gonna save me (from myself )
I used to think that I just wanted more (wanted more)
But now I think it's my disease
And I can’t live with it anymore…
