On My Own

I'm swinging out little one's hand
I'm the push behind the swing
I know everything we wanted
What we strived for
I wish you could be with me
My hopes have dropped
My sadness flares
My anger is my power
My heart just stares

Trying to keep it together
There's so many spaces to fill
And when I'm overwhelmed, overworked, underfed
When we're gettin' enough money to budget with
Don't figure till I make it through
Yeah, I'll make it through
And for our child, too

No one needs to understand that I'll be behind
I wanna blame it all on you
But isn't that so easy to do?
No one needs to understand that I'll be behind
I wanna blame it all on you
But isn't that so easy to do?

I'm on my own
I'm on my own
I wanna be alone
I wanna be alone

I'm swinging out little one's hand
I'm the push behind the swing
I know everything we wanted
What we strived for
I wish you could be with me
My hopes have dropped
My sadness flares
My anger is my power
My heart just stares

Trying to keep it together
There's so many spaces to fill
And when I'm overwhelmed, overworked, underfed
When we're gettin' enough money to budget with
Don't figure till I make it through
Yeah, I'll make it through
And for our child, too

No one needs to understand that I'll be behind
I wanna blame it all on you
But isn't that so easy to do?
No one needs to understand that I'll be behind
I wanna blame it all on you
But isn't that so easy to do?

I'm on my own
I'm on my own
I wanna be alone
I wanna be alone

Not really, not really, not really
This is the best I can do
