I’d Rather Be Alone Lyrics by Brye

Dream Girl

2021

[Verse 1]
This morning in the shower, I was hit with the revelation
We've been fighting non-stop, and we can't keep a conversation
You never see my family, and you don't say I'm pretty anymore
The only time we see each other, our mouths are stuck together
Like rubber and glue, we stick and bounce right off each other
I don't think that means we love one another
Things have been off

[Chorus]
Throw a wineglass at my head as I walk through the door
Turn a tiny little problem into so much more
We spend hours and hours cryin' over the phone
Is it bad to say I'd rather be alone?
Months and months of sittin' 'round, 'cause we got nowhere to be
Oh, you're such a waste of my time and energy
Been so high that we couldn't see all the lows
Is it bad to say I'd rather be alone?

[Verse 2]
We toss and turn and synchronize our moody swinging
You run in circles, waiting for nobody
I take a risk and tell you that I'm unhappy, it backfires
You make me break down and then I crawl back to ya
And we rehearse our "Sorry"s with dramatic crying
And then the cycle starts
Over again and again and again and again

[Chorus]
Throw a wineglass at my head as I walk through the door
Turn a tiny little problem into so much more
We spend hours and hours cryin' over the phone
Is it bad to say I'd rather be alone?
Months and months of sittin' 'round, 'cause we got nowhere to be
Oh, you're such a waste of my time and energy
Been so high that we couldn't see all the lows
Is it bad to say I'd rather be alone?

[Bridge]
Down again we go
Wastin' time 'cause we don't know
And we're too scared to be alone
But I'm done
Hold on to the highs
Oh, I know you don't like goodbyes
But this has to happen
'Cause we'd honestly be better off alone

[Chorus]
Throw a wineglass at my head as I walk through the door
(Is it bad to say I'd rather be alone?)
Turn a tiny little problem into so much more
(Is it bad to say I'd rather be alone?)
Months and months of sittin' 'round, 'cause we got nowhere to be
(Is it bad to say I'd rather be alone?)
Oh, you're such a waste of my time and energy
(Is it bad to say I'd rather be alone?)

[Post-Chorus]
You hate my guts and you hate my friends
(Is it bad to say I'd rather be alone?)
I think the only solution is tying up loose ends
(Is it bad to say I'd rather be alone?)
I don't even know how we lasted this long
(Is it bad to say I'd rather be alone?)
I doubt you'll even bother listening to this song
(Is it bad to say I'd rather be alone?)

[Outro]
Is it bad to say, is it bad to say I'd rather be alone?
Is it bad to say, is it bad to say I'd rather be alone?
