Alanis Morissette On My Own Lyrics

Why do I feel it's all up to me
To see that everything's right
And it's how it should be?
Why don't they just leave me alone?
I've got to prove I can

Little girl with stars in her eyes
They've got her all figured out
And there's nowhere to hide
Why can't they all see who I am?
When will they understand?

It may take some time
They don't know how it feels
Beause they can't read my mind
They always say I'm too young
And they feel they should help me
But I can make it all alone
Out here on my own

Every day I feel so in demand
And all I wish I could find
Is a place I can land
One day I'll feel comfort inside
'Cause I'll know who I am

I can hold the line
If I know in the end
That I won't be left behind
I don't regret what I've done
I don't think you can blame me
Now I'm standing all alone
Out here on my own

I'm not thinking 'bout leaving home
But I need to be on my own
Doesn't mean I have a heart of stone
I won't even ask them why
I can't ever let them see me cry
Here I'm standing all alone out here on my own
Out here on my own

Feeling lost in a world full of lies
I can't help thinkin' that love is just
passin' me by Hold on to what I believe
and keep an open hand

Can I have it all if there's no one to
turn to when I stumble and fall
Is there a secret I need because no one
has told me - all alone

It may take some time cause I know
how it feels to have a lot on your mind
I'll never feel all alone cause I
Know that I have me
Now I can make it all alone out here on my own
