I taught myself to be alone
how I lived in the country
I learned from myself about
what is sadness
what is beautiful
I taught myself to be alone
even when I didn't like it
it takes a strong will to get by alone
most people can't do it
they are nothing when they are alone
I taught myself to be alone
I am still always wanting for some one to say hello
I have taught myself to be tolerant of myself
some people think it would feel like a prison
concern primarily with my own thoughts and feelings
but,I think I am a free-thinking man
deep within my profound mental activity
I taught myself to be alone
sometimes my self-esteem may vary
causing to be different from something else
no one is giving me moral support
no one is helping with positive input
I have to be my own teacher
the student of my soul
I listen to the wind blowing through my soul
within the safety and comfort
of the change of my recovery
I taught myself to be alone
I had to be there for myself
in my times of worry & heartache
hoping for some one to reach out to me
but, no one does and I feel needy
I know it's going to get better
when I have people around I can trust
it's in these human things
pertaining to the social aspect of people
that I find comfort and solace
alleviate or relieve my blues weary mind
time has taught me how to live free
free from suffering anxiety & sorrow
I have the chance to make good on this life
touching the people I know and care about
I tell myself alone ain't so bad
but,I have no one to remember with
I tell myself alone ain't so bad
but, the days creep into years
I tell myself alone ain't so bad
I taught myself to be alone
