[V1]
Late nights, no sleep
Same prayers, different week
And I keep asking You the same thing
Everybody’s posting pictures with somebody they adore
I’m just staring at the ceiling wondering what it’s all for
Got a heart full of love and nobody to receive it
Getting tired of pretending that I really don’t need it
I’ve been building up these walls
But they’re cracking at the seams
Every person that I trusted
Turned to ghosts inside my dreams
Now my phone stays silent, my room stays cold
And every year that passes makes me feel a little old
I got money in my pocket, got a roof over my head
But none of that means much when you’re alone inside your bed
[PC]
And I’m sick of hearing people say
“It’ll happen when it’s time”
I’ve been waiting for a lifetime
Watching everybody find
Someone to hold, someone to call
Someone who stays when everything falls
[C]
God, if I’m meant to be alone
Then why’d You make my heart this way?
Why’d You give me all this love
With nobody to give it to someday?
If there’s nobody waiting at the end of all these roads
Then take away the feeling that’s been breaking all my bones
If love was never meant for me
Then set me free because I’m done
God, if I’m meant to be alone
Please take away the desire to feel loved
[V2]
It’s 3 A.M., I’m driving through the city
No destination, thinking maybe loneliness is my only occupation
Every streetlight looks like memories I never got to make
Every couple holding hands feels like another small mistake
Maybe I’m the problem,
maybe something’s wrong with me,
Maybe everybody else found something I can’t see,
’Cause I gave my all before and all I got was scars
Now I know every back road and every lonely bar
[PC]
And the worst part isn’t heartbreak
Or the nights I’ve been feeling numb
It’s knowing that tomorrow
I’ll still wake up wanting someone
Someone to stay
Someone-someone-someone
Someone who gives me something to lose
I pray
and I pray
and I pray
and I pray!
[C]
God, if I’m meant to be alone
Then why’d You make my heart this way?
Why’d You give me all this love
With nobody to give it to someday?
If there’s nobody waiting at the end of all these roads
Then take away the feeling that’s been breaking all my bones
If love was never meant for me
Then set me free because I’m done
God, if I’m meant to be alone
Please take away the desire to feel loved
[B]
I don’t need a perfect ending
I don’t need a fairy tale
I’m just tired of carrying hope
That always seems to fail
So if the answer’s no
Then let me finally know
’Cause living in between
Is getting harder than letting go
[O]
God, if I’m meant to be alone
Then let this lonely chapter close
Take these dreams out of my head
Take these flowers, let them die as roses
If nobody’s coming
If this is all there ever was
Then take away the hunger
To be somebody’s love
If love was never meant for me
Then let my broken heart be numb
God, if I’m meant to be alone
Please take away the desire to feel loved
God, if I’m meant to be alone
Please take away
