Lyrics I lock myself inside my room I wanna be alone With you around you'll only add on I wanna be alone (Verse) Just let be be alone with my thoughts I wanna be alone With you around you'll only add on Please don't think I'm crazy I don't want you to understand My mind is growing hazy To hell with your helping hand (Chorus) Why don't you just leave me alone? This conflict is my own Just keep your sources away from me That's all (Verse) (Chorus) (Bridge) (Verse) (Chorus) I wanna be alone!
