Chris Carmack - Being Alone lyrics

I finally got my feet wet Can I commit to this rising sea or am I coming home? I feel like I got a freight train hit down on me But I'm somehow hanging on I lay awake at night and dream of things, but they can't see Well, I try to reconcile all the plans they've made for me And they tell me realize my freedom while I'm on my own But there's nothing free about being alone I have tried temptation, someone to have and to hold I've tried medication, to fill the void in my soul I've tried contemplation, I thought I could think myself home But there's nothing free about being alone Most folks can change their philosophy To get a leg up in the game Me, I'm just stuck here with what I believe And it ain't got no fancy name I don't trust myself with life's beautiful things My stone hands and heart can break whatever it builds(?!) And they tell me realize my freedom while I'm on my own But there's nothing free about being alone I have tried temptation, someone to have and to hold I've tried medication, to fill the void in my soul I've tried contemplation, I thought I could think myself home But there's nothing free about being alone [instrumental break] I have tried temptation, someone to have and to hold I've tried medication, to fill the void in my soul I've tried contemplation, I thought I could think myself home But there's nothing free about being alone
