I’d Rather Be Alone Tinashe

I'll always love you that way
Nothing's ever gonna change how I feel about ya
But honestly, nowadays, I believe straight up you
Could never give me what I want
Ain't that somethin'? Thought that we'd work it out
If I just stuck around, let you grow up
You got a thing for withholding your love
You give me a little, but never enough
Oh, what's the point? You don't really wanna fix it 'cause you're so avoidant
Now you're touching on my body and I do enjoy it
No one ever take me serious, and that's so annoying
But you're the only one in my heart, and that is making this so hard
♪
Ooh
Guess this isn't gonna be my happy ending
Oh, I tried to bite my tongue, but I just couldn't help it
Oh, if pain's the price of love, then I just can't accept it
And I don't wanna say this, but I just gotta send it
'Cause I, I'd rather be alone, whoa-whoa
Than wait around for better with you
I, I'd rather be alone than spend my life holding on forever with you
♪
I know all about you, but you're never there for me
So close to me, it seems, you're always out of reach
So I'd rather rip the Band-Aid off than scratch it 'til it bleeds, oh, whoa (Oh, whoa)
It gets to a point where believing you'll change is a foolish assumption
You left me no choice, and I don't wanna be hurt forever
I will put myself first I find out it's worse to look back and admit
I lied to myself when I always knew better, ooh
Potential's just potential, and love is not pleasure

'Cause oh I, I'd rather be alone, whoa-whoa
