lyrics

Tonight I'm gonna stay up late and wait for you to shut your eyes
Take your car keys and my old suitcase
And make my way into the night
I'm gonna drive
I'm tired of being a passenger in my own life

I can shoulder a little bit of blame
And I can live with a little bit of shame
Everybody gonna say what they say
But I don't wanna live this way
I'd rather be alone than afraid

When you met me all that I had known was disappointment in my life
You told me "life is beautiful, everything is gonna be fine"
You lie
And it took a while but damned if I don't know it now

I can shoulder a little bit of blame
And I can live with a little bit of shame
Everybody gonna say what they say
But I don't wanna live this way
I'd rather be alone than afraid

Its only two hours now to the end of her street
And I can already hear what my mum is gonna say to me
"You lay down with a dog, and that dog is gonna bite"
You proved my mama right
So in the middle of the night
I'm gonna drive
I can't wait another day to leave you behind

I can shoulder a little bit of blame
And I can live with a little bit of shame
Everybody gonna say what they say
But I don't wanna live this way
I'd rather be alone than afraid

I can shoulder a little bit of blame
And I can live with a little bit of shame
Everybody gonna say what they say
But I don't wanna live this way
I'd rather be alone than afraid
I'd rather be alone than afraid
I'd rather be alone than afraid

Larissa Tandy Vancouver, British Columbia

Hailing from rural Australia, Larissa came up through Melbourne’s world class music scene, mining her difficult life for potent stories and spinning them into songs that made their way onto radio in America, the UK, and Canada where the CBC ordained them as “songs you need to hear”. ... more
