You're on your own, this is no time to pick a bone
I told myself I had you canned and on the shelf
You want to know how I will get along
You know, you say I'm weak, but babe, you know you're wrong
You know I'm strong
You could use a good talking to
My words are true, but that is not the issue
I'm leaving home, I need some time to be alone
I'm leaving town, I have no cause to stick around
You ask of me, how could I possibly be free?
Your heart is ice, I hope that answer will suffice
This song for me, a mantra chanted softly
It mends my soul, but in my heart it rends a hole
I know you're hurt, but babe, you know I could be too
If you return, God only knows what I may do
