MARINA AND THE DIAMONDS
"Happy Loner"

Waking up late, I feel demotivated
Everything's wrong, guess my thoughts escalated
When I'm alone, things are under control
When I'm alone, I can turn off the world

[Pre-Chorus:]
I try to escape, but I can't lose my mind
That's why I can't live a conventional life

[Chorus:]
'Cause I'm happy being a loner
Happy being a loner
I'm sick of it all, I wanna give it up
But I'm on the edge
And I feel like everything's too much, too much, mmm
Too much, too much, mmm

They don't understand why I like being alone
I don't wanna be so accessible
Emotionally, I'm on the edge of a knife
That's how I learned, that's how I learned to survive

[Pre-Chorus:]
If I'm alone, then you'll never find
The truth about me that I'm losing my mind
And it's too hard to pretend
So I stay away from my friends

[Chorus:]
'Cause I'm happy being a loner
Happy being a loner
I'm sick of it all, I wanna give it up
But I'm on the edge
And I feel like everything's too much, too much, mmm
Too much, too much, mmm

[Bridge:]
I pick up on everybody's energy
Always used to feel like there was something wrong with me
(Wrong with me)
When the world is overwhelming, I need to breathe

[Chorus:]
'Cause I'm happy being a loner
Happy being a loner
I'm sick of it all, I wanna give it up
But I'm on the edge
And I feel like everything's too much, too much, mmm
Too much, too much, mmm
Too much, too much, mmm
Too much, too much, mmm

[Outro:]
Too much, too much, mmm
Too much, too much, mmm
